On Sunday, the US-led coalition said it was working with the so-called Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) to set up the new border force.

Warning the US and other nations over the stated plan, Erdogan said, “This is what we have to say to all our allies: don't get in between us and terrorist organizations, or we will not be responsible for the unwanted consequences.”
Saudi threat to seize Hariri assets part of familiar policy
