Turkey has alleged the United States of intentionally stalling the fight against ISIS militants in Syria.
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told reporters on the sidelines of a Turkish-African meeting in Istanbul today that US forces are leaving pockets with ISIS militants intact to justify continued cooperation with the Kurdish militia.
He warned that Turkish relations with the U.S. are close to breaking.
Turkish Foreign Minister added that he would discuss the problems in ties with U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson during his visit to Turkey this week. (Anadolu/Reuters)
