"Let's find a good agreement," suggests Trump in this four-paragraph missive unveiled Wednesday, but dated October 9, whose authenticity has been confirmed to AFP. It was therefore addressed to the Turkish President the day he launched his troops to attack the Kurds in northern Syria.

"History will judge you favorably if you act in a just and humane way. She will always consider you the devil if things go wrong, "warns Mr. Trump without further details.
