‘Pause of Turkey’s op in Syria not cease-fire’

ANKARA

The pause of Turkey’s anti-terror operation in Syria is not a cease-fire, cease-fire can only happen between the two legitimate sides, the Turkish foreign minister said on Thursday.

“Turkey will end the operation in northern Syria only after YPG/PKK terrorists leave [safe zone],” Mevlut Cavusoglu told a news conference.

“We [Turkey and the U.S.] agreed on collecting heavy weapons of YPG, destructing their positions and fortifications,” Cavusoglu added.
