Turkey says those opposing operation in Syria's Afrin siding with terrorists

Anyone who opposes Turkey's operation in northern Syria's Afrin region is siding with terrorists and will be treated accordingly, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu said on Sunday.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of an official visit to Iraq, Çavuşoğlu said Ankara expected France to support Turkey's operation, after France asked Turkey to act with restraint in Syria, saying it would call an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council.
