Turkish PM: Fight against Daesh Requires "Integrated Strategy"
(MENAFN- Qatar News Agency) Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Monday that the fight against Daesh group requires an "integrated strategy" that will end the power vacuum in Syria.
"Turkey alone cannot take all this burden. If there is a coalition and a very well-designed, integrated strategy, Turkey is ready to take part in all sense," Turkish Anadolu Agency (AA) quoted Davutoglu as saying in an interview with the (CNN).
Asked whether Turkey would agree to a ground force to fight Daesh, Davutoglu said there was a need for "an integrated strategy including air campaign and ground troops", adding that continuing to have a power vacuum on the ground would lead to the emergence of another terrorist group in Syria instead of Daesh. "We have to solve the Syrian crisis in a comprehensive manner," he said.
Turkey is conducting, within the international coalition, almost daily air campaigns against Daesh, the Turkish Prime Minister said, adding "it is not enough, we are observing this," he said, reiterating Turkey's call to establish a safe haven to push Daesh far away from its border.
