Originally published

The Turkish daily " Daily news" said in its Wednesday's issue that the support given by Ankara to the US was conditioned by a reservation on that such a support is given in regard to a move relating to Afghanistan, noting that Turkey despite the fact that did not set certain condition, it however, openly refused to be a side in a move targeting Iran, Iraq, Syria and Sudan.

The paper added that the American officials announced they will hold consultations with countries that host and sponsor terrorism like Iran, Iraq, Sudan. Etc and these countries will be monitored closely.

The paper quoted the American officials as saying that there will be no problem if these countries would have cut ties with the terrorist groups and proved not any move giving them any support, besides that any negative step towards this end will mean " we will be taking diplomatic, economic, military measures to punish these countries."

The paper added that the message addressed by the American officials to the countries concerned started to yield its fruits as Iran and Syria announced that they do understand the US concern.
