Answer: Official Ankara supports opposition forces fighting the tyranny of Bashar el Assad.

Explanation:

Ever since the start of the Syria revolution, Turkey has sided with opposition forces fighting President Bashar al-Assad's dictatorship. In the war in Syria, all the great powers of the world are involved, who, because of their different interests, support one of the warring parties. Turkey considers Assad a tyrant and therefore supports opposition structures that fight Assad's arbitrariness.

In addition to frequent clashes with the Syrian army, Turkey has repeatedly dealt with terrorists of the so-called Islamic State on the border. Especially after the breakdown of this barbaric quasi-state, Islamic State survivors are trying to escape from Syria, and frequent break-even attempts have been recorded at the Syrian-Turkish border. Turkey is also waging a real war on this border with the Kurds, especially the Syrians, who are Turkey's multinational enemies.
