Pentagon chief James Mattis discussed at meetings with Turkish President Recep Erdogan and Defense Minister Nurettin Janikli Syria, Iraq and the “pernicious influence of Iran” in the Middle East region, reports RIA News.



This was the first meeting between Minister Janikli and Minister Mattis. They discussed the need for further open and honest dialogue, the importance of the territorial integrity of Syria and Iraq, as well as concerns about the detrimental influence of Iran in the region,
says the Pentagon release.

Later, the US Secretary of Defense met with Erdogan and discussed "regional stability and strategy," the department said.

Mattis also “discussed Turkey’s legitimate security concerns.” What exactly is this "legitimate concern" in the Pentagon did not specify.

It is noted that before Turkey, the American Minister visited Iraq, then he will go on a visit to Ukraine.

      Particularly impressed with the words about the need for "further open and honest dialogue." And along the way, the United States began to merge its "ally" - the Kurds. However, as Jacob Kedmi told in Dialogues, America constantly threw Israel, and in very difficult situations

        Mattresses are always like this: in words - “partners and allies”, in fact - “scammers”. A lot of examples.

        - And even more specifically: wherever there is something to naughty, but so as not to catch on the teeth for it.

      The Persians, of course, are not a present, but the Turks have always been our enemies and the Turks are well aware of this! The GDP flirts with both of them, but he has nowhere to go, but in this case, I would bet on the Persians, only because they are terrible hate the Anglo-Saxons! After all, everyone understands that the Anglo-Saxons and their sponsors, the Jews want to put their paws on the rich hydrocarbon lands of Iran! Hussein was a fool ... if he had not been biting with Iran, he would still rule!

    It would be better to discuss the harmful influence of the United States in the world.

      America, not harmful ... It brings democracy and tolerance to the whole world with the help of bombing attacks. True true! Hilary will not let you lie, and Mac Kane will confirm. "Freedom Limpopo."

      Vacuum in the Middle East was formed much earlier than 10 years. We could have hit on American pride before, but at first we were very weak, and then there was a hackaskray policy. But there are sanctions, and American toucans (psis such a family of woodpeckers) still do not understand, and for what. Well, in general, this is a real blow to the exceptional. Well: “We are innocent, he himself came” - arctic fox of captivating happiness

    He could not have done otherwise. It was precisely for this that he was imprisoned. The Yankees created it for this. No one could have imagined that America’s views would change polarity ...

      On guard. "that Turkey, that Iran, I don’t see any difference." But I do not see the difference between the United States and Israel, both terrorists, the United States on a global scale, Israel in the Middle East.

    It turns out interesting: the other day there was information that Iran and Turkey were establishing relations at the level of chiefs of staff, and now: "Iran’s pernicious influence in the region."
    It can be assumed: the Americans learned that the sultan and the ayatola are building bridges here, or Mattis has rushed to the sultan. And this message: “Mattis discussed in Ankara” should be understood as a trial balloon: how much is the sultan interested in friendship with the ayatola

    “further open and honest dialogue” oh don’t tell me, how long have Americans started talking about an open and honest dialogue: Kurds played, played, and now they begin an “open and honest dialogue” with the Sultan, and sent Kurds to the “Gretians”? And they don’t have to re-establish friendship with the courses again: you know, I love you for a long time, and the “Sultan” that has passed, and you and I have such prospects
