Vice President Mike Pence announced that the United States has convinced Turkey to agree to a ceasefire in Syria.
Speaking in Ankara after more than five hours of talks with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Pence said the two countries "have both mutually committed to a peaceful resolution and future for the safe zone, working on an international basis to ensure that peace and security defines this border region of Syria."Under the deal, Pence said, Turkey would pause its military operations for 120 to allow Kurdish forces to withdraw from the border areas.
Early Thursday afternoon, Pence and Pompeo walked out of the ambassador's residence here en route to the presidential palace to meet with Erdogan wearing dark suits, and stern looks. They posed for a photo, but declined to answer questions about their task at hand. Pompeo’s trip will also take him to Jerusalem for consultations with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and to Brussels for a meeting with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.
