NATO ally Norway suspends new arms exports to Turkey over Syria offensive
Norway, a NATO ally of Turkey, announces it’s suspending all new arms exports to the country after Ankara launched a military offensive against Kurdish forces in northern Syria.
“Given that the situation is complex and changing quickly, the foreign ministry as a precautionary measure will not handle any new demands for exports of defence material or material for multiple uses… to Turkey,” Norwegian Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Soreide says in an email sent to AFP.
