ISTANBUL/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Turkey is ready to take over security in Syria’s Manbij, where four U.S. citizens died in an Islamic State-claimed bombing last week, President Tayyip Erdogan told U.S. President Donald Trump in a telephone call on Sunday, the Turkish presidency said.
Erdogan told Trump that the suicide bombing in Manbij, a town in northeast Syria controlled by a militia allied to U.S.-backed Kurdish forces, was a provocative act aimed at affecting Trump’s decision last month to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria.
==================================================
Erdogan can hardly wait for Trump to pull out our troops out of Syria so Turkey can move in. After all, Trump has declared victory over ISIS & he likes strongman Erdogan. Too bad if some of our Kurdish allies get in Erdogan's way. He wants to destroy them anyway.
