Saudi FM: We support Turkey’s operation in Syria

"We support what Turkey is doing nowadays in Syria, I do believe that the aims of Turkey and Saudi Arabia in the region are almost the same," al-Jubeir told a panel on Turkish-Saudi relations held at the Foundation for Political, Economic and Social Research (SETA) think-tank in Turkey’s capital Ankara.

Turkey’s Operation Euphrates Shield began on Aug. 24 when the Free Syrian Army, backed by the Turkish military, liberated Jarablus in northern Syria.
