The Free Syrian Army, created by former members of Syria's armed forces, is fighting both the country's government and the Islamic State group.
“The highly destructive Syria policy by the ruling Justice and Development Party has made Turkey a part of Syria’s civil war and contributed to the growth and spread of bloody clashes,” Logoglu said.
About two million Syrian refugees are currently in Turkey, and more than 200,000 Syrians have been killed in the ongoing war, the politician noted.
The Turkish leadership moves have had a negative impact on the country’s internal and border security, with Turkish civilians being killed by shelling near the Syrian border, Logoglu said.
“And in these circumstances we are now going to start a program to train and equip militants of the Free Syrian Army. With this we will only further aggravate the already tense situation in the country and endanger the lives of our own citizens,” he said.
The Syrian civil war began in 2011, when widespread anti-government protests turned into an armed rebellion. Syrian government-led forces are currently battling numerous independent militias, including the Islamic State, itself subject to US-led coalition airstrikes since September 2014.
