Syria condemned on Thursday the "repeated and impudent statements" of the Turkish Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

The foreign ministry released on Thursday in which it accused Erdoan of terrorism as Ankara supports the insurgents in Syria.

“Erdogan accuses Syria of terrorism while he and his government practice this terrorism overtly against the Syrian people through harboring, training and supporting the armed terrorist groups,” the statement said, according to SANA news agency.

The ministry added that Ankara was “facilitating the infiltration of terrorists and Jihadists to Syria in a way that has been clearly exposed through the testimonies of journalists who visited Syria and the confessions of terrorists in the Syrian media, and even the statements of some Turkish politicians who accuse Erdogan's government openly of ‘playing with fire’."

The Turkish PM said on Wednesday that Syria has become a “terrorist state,” adding that President Bashar al-Assad as “up to his neck in blood”.

" In the time when Erdogan, in every international forum, is calling for establishing buffer zones, it would be useful to remind that the joint borders between the two countries were an example to follow regarding the integration between countries in terms of trade exchange and building friendship bridges between the two brotherly peoples.”

The statement stressed that yet Erdogan, who “shoulders the responsibility for the deterioration of the bilateral relations because of his hostile policies, has not been satiated with the Syrian blood he shed and the destruction he caused to Syria, as he also flouted all principles of fraternity and good-neighborly relations between the Syrian and Turkish peoples.”

"The sign of Erdogan's aggressive behavior is obvious, as it expresses his frustration for the failure of the scheme targeting Syria and its people," the statement said.

“Friendship ties between the Syrian and Turkish peoples will remain firm, as Erdogan's policies could not drag the Turkish people to antagonize their brothers in Syria." The statement concluded.
