Syrian President Bashar al-Assad says Turkey supports terrorists who commit atrocities against the people in Syria.
“Turkey has supplied all logistic support to the terrorists who have killed our people,” Assad said in an interview with the Turkish Cumhuriyet daily published on Wednesday.
“Turkey’s desire to interfere in Syria’s internal affairs has put it in a position which unfortunately makes it a party to all the bloody activities” in Syria, he added.
On June 3, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan censured the government of President Assad over its approach to reforms in the Arab country.
“I have not seen him (Assad) approach reforms with a democratic understanding,” Erdogan said.
The Turkish prime minister also stated that the Syrian president is taking “an autocratic approach” to the issues inside Syria.
