Egypt has also voiced opposition to the Turkish state’s invasion operation against Afrin Canton of Northern Syria.

The Foreign Ministry of Egypt condemned the Turkish state’s “unacceptable” attack on Afrin, calling it an intervention against and violation of Syrian lands.

In a statement about the operation, the Foreign Ministry pointed out that Turkey negatively affected the political efforts for the ending of terror in Syria, saying; “The attitude of Egypt towards military methods is clear as attacks against our Syrian brothers and sisters are increasing.”

On the other hand, Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, Frants Klintseviç stated that “Russia will ask Turkey to end its operation on Afrin at the United Nations.”

In a Facebook post about the invasion attempt, top Russian official Konstantin Kosaçev said; “Disturbing news are coming from Syria. The “Anti-terrorist operation” announced by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan causes nothing but concern.”

It’s time Turkey is kicked out of NATO and treated like the rogue nation it is.

I wonder if the U.S. gives Foreign Aid to Turkey. It’s not like they need it or anything!

Turkey gets billions because we want to keep using the air base there, but Erdogan has gone too far.

President SISI was responsible leadership, long before the GCC.

But yes. You are correct.

I don’t think they want the city, but the area north of it.
Don’t see how anyone can stop them from annexing most of Afrin province. The city, though, is a tougher nut diplomatically and militarily.

Just watch. You don’t know Syrian Kurds.

Turks are about to get the matt pulled right out from under them.

The six Nations of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) are: Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.

The Egyptian Government is in a death match with the Muslim Brotherhood, and Turkey has given sanctuary to the leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood.
