O.R: Other quotes from Biden’s conference:
“ISIL is not the only existential threat… the PKK is equally a threat and we are aware of that.”
“The PKK has shown no desire or inclination to do that (live in peace). It is a terrorist group plain and simple. And what they continue to do is absolutely outrageous.”
