France must review ties with YPG: Çavuşoğlu

ANKARA

Turkey’s Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu has called on France to review its ties with the PYD/YPG, which Ankara considers as a terrorist group due to links with the PKK.

“On the Syria issue, France must review its stance regarding PYD/YPG, offshoot of the terrorist organization PKK in Syria,” Çavuşoğlu tweeted after a meeting with French Ambassador to Ankara, Charles Fries on May 8.

Çavuşoğlu said Turkey attaches importance to relations with France and is pleased to see commercial economic relations expand.
