No tolerance for militants headed to Syria, Turkish FM Davutoglu says

Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu pushed back Nov. 18 against allegations that Turkey has not cracked down hard enough on extremists crossing its border to fight in Syria’s civil war while calling for greater intelligence cooperation.



Turkey has been accused of harboring rebels associated with al-Qaeda who operate across the border in Syria, but Foreign Minister Davutoglu insisted his country had no tolerance for extremists and likened the situation to problems on the U.S. border with Mexico.

“In no way Turkey tolerates or will be tolerating any extremist groups crossing Turkish borders,” Davutoglu told reporters at a briefing at the Turkish Embassy in Washington. He said such reports were exaggerated and if Turkey closed its borders, it would be criticized for blocking humanitarian aid flowing into Syria and keeping refugees out.
