French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian called for an emergency meeting of the coalition created to fight
Islamic State to discuss Turkey's offensive against Kurdish militias in northern Syria.
Le Drian said on
France 2 television that the coalition, which includes more than 30 countries, needs to discuss a range of issues because Islamic State could take advantage of the changes on the ground to re-emerge.
"It (the coalition) needs to say today what are we going do, how do you,
Turkey, want to proceed and how do we ensure the security of places where fighters are held?
