Turkey's prime minister Ahmet Davutoğlu accused Russia on 9 December 2015 of 'ethnic cleasing' in northern Syria, saying Russians were trying to drive out the local Turkmen and Sunni Muslim populations for military purposes. The statement was the latest of a series of accusations between Russia and Turkey since their relations reached a lowest point following the decision by Turkey to shoot down a Russian warplane near the Turkish-Syrian border in November 2015. |
