Agence France Presse
ISTANBUL: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Friday his country expected the creation of a "security zone" in Syria in a few months as the U.S. withdraws its troops from the war-torn country.

"We expect the promise of a security zone, a buffer zone aimed at protecting our country from terrorists to be fulfilled in few months," Erdogan told a televised rally, referring to the Syrian Kurdish militia deemed as a terror group by Ankara.

"Otherwise we will establish it ourselves."
