Erdogan announced plans to annex territories of Syria to Turkey
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, in a speech to fellow party members in Sakarya, promised to “revise the outcome of World War I and annex Syrian territories (formerly Ottoman provinces) into Turkey,” Telegram channel "Turkey's Top News" reported.
“I wonder what would have happened if conditions had been different at the time when World War I was redefining borders in our region?
The cities we call Aleppo, Idlib, Damascus and Raqqa would become our provinces like Antep, Hatay and Urfa!” - a resource quoted Erdogan as saying.
