First pic from Erdogan, Pence meeting.

NO ONE is happy
“We’re told the bilat between Pence and Erdogan began around 3:30PM and that only translators are in the room. James Jeffrey is the translator for Pence,” reports print pooler.

Erdogan often meets US leaders without actual translators to create a familiar and close atmosphere
More pics from Pence, Erdogan meeting.

STILL NOT HAPPY

You think Trump shocked Pentagon, State Department and US Congress by pulling out from parts of Northern Syria?

TURKS WERE ALSO SURPRISED by the White House readout, because Trump didn’t tell Erdogan in the call that he was going to withdraw

middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive…
Ankara would wait about a week for US forces to fully pull out from the area before launching its offensive in Syria, senior Turkish official told MEE.

“But if we see a risk, there would be an intervention [before then],” the official said

middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive…
More or less this article by Newsweek confirms our story on Trump/Erdogan call

A US official adds,

“To be honest with you, it would be better for the US to support a Kurdish nation across Turkey/Syria/Iraq. It would be another Israel in the region."

#BREAKING The Saudi government is deporting hundreds of #Rohingya refugees to Bangladesh.

Here's a video sent to me by an inmate in Shumaisi showing Rohingya being lined up, handcuffed, and prepared for deportation.
Voice notes from Rohingya inside Saudi Arabia tell me that Saudi prison guards rounded up loads of Rohingya in the middle of the night, and told them to get ready for Bangladesh.
Some of these Rohingya men, women, and children, have been inside Shumaisi, a Saudi detention centre, for the last five to six years.

BREAKING: The White House has said that US President #Trump is canceling his upcoming South America trip to remain in the US "to oversee the American response to Syria." - @NBCNews
This sounds like the US is planning to strike #Syria and Trump will remain in the US to closely monitor responses by #Russia. This is terrible.
BREAKING - British forces are now mobilizing at their bases in #Cyprus for strikes against #Syria. It appears very likely that the US, France and U.K. will strike Syria in the next 24 hours. This is dreadful.
