Erdogan threatens Damascus immediate military response

Turkey has demanded an immediate end to the offensive of Syrian government forces in Iglinsky area of de-escalation and withdrawal of units of the CAA from the Turkish observation posts. This was stated by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, speaking in Istanbul.
The Turkish leader once again threatened to fight for Syrian army, if it does not immediately leave the liberated during the onset of territory and will not return to the positions occupied in 2018, when he signed the Sochi agreement. He stressed that he would not wait for the end of the month as promised earlier, and strike immediately.
While regime forces will not go beyond the bounds (zone of de-escalation in Idlib) defined in the Sochi agreement, the problem will not be solved. If they do not leave, we will do this work before the end of Feb

he said.
Recall that in Syria, according to the agreements of Russia, Iran and Turkey, created four zones of de-escalation, three of which are controlled by Damascus. The fourth zone, which includes the province of Idlib and part of the provinces of Latakia, Hama and Aleppo, is under the control of insurgents. Ankara has promised to restore order in the area of de-escalation, placing there the observation posts, but nothing to achieve failed, the militants continued shelling of civilian areas.
Currently, several Turkish observation posts located on the territory captured from the rebels by government forces, thus losing its original meaning. Despite this, the Turks are not going to move away from its border, but on the contrary, require Damascus to withdraw its forces from the liberated territories.

As previously reported some media reports, Erdogan had big plans for Idlib province, where they wanted to create a quasi-state, fully under the control of Ankara.
