ANTALYA: Turkey on Friday accused its NATO ally the United States of “unacceptable” behavior after US commandos in Syria were pictured assisting a Kurdish militia that is branded a terror group by Ankara and even wearing their insignia.
The scathing accusations of “hypocrisy” and “double standards” levelled by Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu came after an AFP photographer saw US troops in Syria wearing insignia of the Kurdish People’s Protection Units.
“We advise them (US troops) to wear badges of Daesh or Al-Nusra when they go to other parts of Syria and badges of Boko Haram when they go to Africa,” Cavusoglu said with angry sarcasm.
