Turkey has a natural right to intervene in Syria if terrorist formations pose a threat in the area” Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said yesterday after groups affiliated with the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) gained control of Syrian towns along Turkey’s border.

“If there are formations that are being set up right now that results in a certain terrorist act, then it is ou most natural right to intervene, since such terrorism would be a step toward disturbing our national peace. We can not allow that,” he added in a television interview yesterday.

Erdoğan, however, dismissed suggestions that Turkey wanted to bring Kurds in the area under their tutelage.

The prime minister also criticized media reports that said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had abandoned border areas to the Kurds, arguing instead that the real situation was “very interesting.” “These are sensitive regions,” Erdoğan said. “We will not tolerate PKK cooperation with any other organizations in the area.”
