In a statement, the Defense Ministry said Turkey launched Afrin operation due to the U.S. arming of the groups in Syria.

Turkey launched the Afrin operations due to Pentagon’s supply of modern weapons to US-led armed groups in Syria, the statement said and added that the United States’ irresponsible behavior in Syria threatens the peace process in the country as well as the Geneva process.

It also highlighted the “provocative steps” taken by the United States was the main factor contributing to the development of the crisis situation in the northwest Syria.
