Isis, Turkey wants to repatriate captured foreign fighters. "It doesn't matter if their nationality has been revoked"

They will be repatriated, even if their countries of origin – in particular Holland, Belgium, France and Germany – they revoked their citizenship because they belong to a terrorist group. The Turkish Interior Minister, Suleyman Soylu, reiterated once again the line of the government, which will send home i foreign fighters of the Islamic State captured during the recent military campaign in the northeast of the Syria and that are currently in the prisons of Ankara. And it will expel them even if they are without a passport.

"The members of Daesh (Isis) in our hands will be sent back to theirs countries of origin even if they have been deprived of them citizenship – he said -. We will send back those who are in our hands, but now the world has adopted a new method: to revoke the Nationality. They are saying that they must be processed where they were captured. I imagine this is a new form of international law", he has declared Soylu during a press conference. "It is not possible to accept it. We will return the members of Daesh in our hands to their countries, regardless of whether they revoke nationality ". Already on 2 November, speaking to the Turkish pro-government daily Daily Sabah, Soylu the minister complained that some European countries did not respond to the demands of Ankara to take back their citizens, accused of terrorism. "Countries cannot simply revoke the citizenship to former terrorists and expect that Turkey he took care of it – he had said -. For us it is unacceptable, and it is also irresponsible".

in the meantime Ankara announced the arrest of 287 suspected jihadists of Isis during the operation in the northeast of Syria. The deputy interior minister, Ismail Catakli, explained that among the suspects there are 45 Turks and 242 "foreigners" from 19 countries. Turkish citizens have been repatriated.
