Erdogan: NATO Must Take Stance against US; France calls for 'urgent' UN Security Council meeting

Turkey’s president has called on the country’s defense allies to take a stance against an American plan for a Kurdish-led border security force in Syria.

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, should oppose such a force.

The United States and its partners want to establish the security force to control the border area between Syria, Iraq and Turkey.

The move is part of the United States-led effort against the Islamic State group often called IS.
