Turkey and US will keep working on removal of Assad
US President Barack Obama says the United States and Turkey will continue to support the militants in Syria, and keep working on the removal of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Obama made the remarks during a joint news conference with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the White House on Thursday.
The US president said Washington will make efforts to mobilize the international community to exert more pressure on Assad.
Meanwhile, Erdogan said that Ankara will support the militants in Syria and that Assad’s removal from power is one of Turkey’s priorities.
"We both agree that Assad needs to go. He needs to transfer power to a transitional body," Erdogan stated.
"That is the only way we're going to resolve this crisis," he added.
