By Ali Murat Alhas

ANKARA (AA) - Turkey's foreign minister on Saturday called on Germany to act in line with the “spirit of alliance” on Turkey’s anti-terrorism operation in northern Syria.

“What we expect from Germany is that it acts in line with the spirit of alliance,” Mevlut Cavusoglu said at a joint news conference with his German counterpart Heiko Maas in the capital Ankara.

Cavusoglu said that YPG/PKK terror group’s affiliates in Germany had harassed and attacked Turkish citizens, and urged German security officials to act against such elements.
