MEPs and other politicians criticised the Turkish military intervention in northern Syria during a debate at the European Parliament in Strasbourg on Wednesday.
"The Turkish behaviour removes that country politically still further away from the European Union," said MEP Michael Gahler.
MEP Malik Azmani meanwhile criticised the EU's reaction to Turkey's military operation. "The EU's response has not been strong enough. We cannot just stand by and see how others interfere, for example Russia, Assad, Iran, it's also our safety that is at stake," he said.
Tytti Tuppurainen, who was representing the Finnish Presidency of the Council, critcised the use of military force as a solution to security issues in northern Syria. "Turkey's security concerns at its border with Syria will not be answered by the military intervention. This offensive instead undermines the fight against Daesh and threatens our common security," she said.
