Along with\u00a0the continuing operations in Homs, Deirezzor and Daraa, we have learned that many have been killed and wounded\u00a0in the operations launched this morning against the residents of Hama\u00a0who have refrained from violence from the outset and strived to engage in dialogue with the administration.<br \/>\nTurkey had expected efforts to be exerted towards creating an atmosphere of peace and tranquility in the holy\u00a0month of Ramadan, and is deeply disappointed and saddened by these developments on the eve of holy Ramadan as\u00a0rest of the Islamic world.<br \/>\nThese operations do not contribute to the restoration of order in Syria, but hamper the process of needed reforms.\u00a0These kind of operations and violence do not achieve solutions, but rather create a deadlock. It is time for the\u00a0Syrian administration to see this reality.<br \/>\nThe current developments raise suspicions regarding the intention and sincerity of the Syrian administration to\u00a0resolve the issue through peaceful methods.<br \/>\nTurkey reiterates its call upon the Syrian government to end the operations and resort to political methods,\u00a0dialogue and peaceful initiatives in order to reach a solution.<\/p>\n<p>Republic Of Turkey Ministry of Foreign Affairs <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The social developments taking place in our neighbor Syria for the last couple of months have been followed\u00a0very closely and patiently by Turkey along with the international community.
