Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[REGNUM] According to the Sozcü newspaper, the German government condemned the Turkish air operation in the regions in northern Iraq and Syria, calling it a violation of international law. “We call on Turkey to act proportionately and respect international law,” said German Foreign Ministry spokesman Christopher Burger, noting the need to protect civilians. He also added that information about the death of civilians as a result of Turkish air strikes is extremely alarming.

“We call on Turkey, along with all other actors, not to take any action that could further escalate the current tensions in northern Syria and Iraq,” Burger said. A tougher statement came from Washington. The written message, published on the official website of the US State Department, states the following: “The United States expresses its sincere condolences for the civilian casualties in Syria and Turkey. We call for de-escalation to support the common goal of protecting civilians and defeating ISIS. We also continue to oppose any uncoordinated military action in Iraq that violates the sovereignty of Baghdad."
