The region is currently witnessing the worst-case scenario in Syria, Turkish President Abdullah Gül said today.

"We have casualties. We're constantly in touch with the General Staff and our government,” Gül said during a press conference with Estonian Ambassador to Turkey Miko Haljas.

“They are instantly taking all the necessary steps and this will continue. We cannot expect the situation in Syria to continue as it is. A transformation and transition period will definitely arrive,” he said.

“All we desire is for this to happen at once and with no more bloodshed. I think the international actors have to be active in this period,” Gül said.
