ANKARA (Sputnik) - Turkey will conduct a military operation in northern Syria in an "understandable" way to the international community, taking into account Ankara's experience on the issue, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday.
"We will not carry out an operation that the international community does not understand. We will carry out the operation 'in the language' the international community understands. Turkey has serious experience on the issue. There is no need to worry," Erdogan said in Madrid, when asked about the international community's attitude towards the military operation planned by Ankara in northern Syria.
