PARIS (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Tuesday there was no discrepancy between the United States and Turkey with regard to what Ankara “will or won’t do” in the fight against Islamic State insurgents.
Speaking at a news conference in Paris after talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Kerry insisted that Turkey was a “valued member” of the U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State, which has taken over swathes of Iraq and Syria, and said Ankara would define its role “on its own timetable.”
Kerry spoke after Turkey on Monday denied an assertion over the weekend by U.S. national security adviser Susan Rice that it had agreed to let American planes take off from its air bases to strike Islamic State targets. Ankara said this matter was still under discussion.
Turkey, a NATO member that has drawn international criticism for its refusal to help defend the besieged Syrian Kurdish border town of Kobani from an Islamic State assault, did confirm, however, that it had agreed with Washington on the training of Syrian rebels.
“As far as I know there is no discrepancy with respect to what is going on,” Kerry said when asked about Rice’s comments over the weekend.
“Turkey obviously has a very important role to play in this process going forward,” he said. “It certainly has allowed the use of certain facilities. We don’t need to get into specifics except to say that I don’t believe there is any discrepancy with regard to what they will or won’t do.”

True. Both governments are siding with the Muslim terrorists and eagerly watching while they slaughter every Kurd and Christian in sight.
But, but, what are the Turks doing about Global Warming, horsey?
In a world run by idiots, Kerry is going to go down as the Moron King, mark my words.
lol
Mealy mouthed prick.
So Kerry has no problem with genocide against the Kurds. We kind of figured that out ourselves Lurch.
We did that over 6 years ago. Now we are full fledged citizens of Alice's 'Looking Glass' world. Lewis Carroll please pick up the white courtesy phone.
Lying ba$turds!
“As far as I know there is no discrepancy with respect to what is going on,”

said Ankara would define its role “on its own timetable.”
In other words John F’n they told you to kiss off...
NIMNALL! COWARD! DIPSHIT! MORON! CRETIN! FOOL! Every time I hear this twit's name the previous words flash into my mind. John Kerry is an embarrassment to all oxygen breathing life forms in the known universe.
Just when I think Joe Biden is the stupidest man around, John “I was in Cambodia for Xmas 1969” Kerry proves me wrong.
Calling Dr. Kevorkian. You are needed at the State Dept.
