Turkish Forces to Stay in Iraq and Syria for Border Security
Turkish Defense Minister Yasar Guler's statements confirm that Turkey will continue to maintain its forces in Syria and Iraq until all security and border issues are fully addressed, ensuring complete control over the territories and reducing terrorist threats. He added that a reassessment of the troop deployment will be conducted after eliminating terrorist threats and guaranteeing Syria's full sovereignty, with a focus on developments on the ground. Turkish forces have been stationed along the border for years to confront the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and ISIS, amid efforts to gradually reduce military presence once all security and sovereignty conditions are met.
