Greek FM: Turkey's invasion in Syria is a "big mistake"
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Turkey's invasion in Syria is a "big mistake", Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias said late on Wednesday in an interview with public broadcaster ERT1.
Dendias added that Turkey has repeatedly made such mistakes over the last years.
He stressed that Turkey's attempt to create a zone by moving refugees from Syria and relocating them there as a zone against the Kurdish is illegal, pointing out that the movement of migrants must be subject to some basic principles: to be voluntary and decent.
"This is not the case now. Therefore, what Turkey is doing is contrary to the human rights of the refugees on the Turkish territory," he added.
At the same time, he said that Turkey "is opening a front" which does not help it. "The Turks have made a very big mistake," Dendias underlined.
