I think it's very important to be clear about where responsibilities lie in relation to the impact of these military actions. Turkey is responsible for the decisions it has made in conducting this incursion. Turkey is totally accountable for the actions of its military forces and the militia groups it is employing. They are responsible for the humanitarian suffering they are causing through their military operations and they are accountable for the detention, custody and escape of any Daesh fighters. Our discussions with the United States concerned these issues and more, but it is not my habit, as you know and as the Senate knows, to go into the contents of those private discussions.
