France called on Turkey to avoid taking any unilateral action in northern Syria that could hinder the ongoing fight against the Islamic State group. The statement came hours after the White House's announcement it was pulling US troops from northern Syria, clearing the way for an expected Turkish assault against Kurdish fighters who have been key allies in the campaign against the Islamic State group.
