WASHINGTON, (ST)- US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday warned the Turkish regime that sending Syrian terrorists to take part in the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh province will lead to more instability.
Sputnik quoted Pompeo as saying to journalists “we saw Syrian fighters taken from the battlefields in Syria to Libya. This has created more instability, more turbulence, more conflict, more fighting and less peace”.
“I think it would do the same thing in the conflict in and around Nagorno-Karabakh as well,” Pompeo added.
Media reports uncovered that the Turkish regime has started to send Syrian mercenaries from the northern part of Syria to take part in the fight in Nagorno-Karabakh.
On Thursday, French President Emmanuel Macron said that Turkey’s action of sending extremist Syrian terrorists to fight in the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh province “is a very serious new development that changes the situation”.
The United States has been the main supporter of terrorist groups in Syria. Its forces are still occupying wide Syrian areas and stealing Syrian oil and resources in a flagrant violation of the UN Charter and the rules of the international law.
