"You can see that the weapons reluctantly given to our country by our allies are found in the separatist terrorist organisation's shelters," Erdogan said in a statement following a Cabinet Meeting on Tuesday. "We cannot accept the distorted relationship that some of our allies have established with the PYD-YPG, the Syrian extension of the PKK terrorist organisation," he said on X on Friday, urging a shift away from policies harming NATO's unity and integrity.
