TUNIS: Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan called Syrian President Bashar al-Assad a terrorist and said it was impossible for Syrian peace efforts to continue with him. Turkey has demanded the removal of Assad from power and backed rebels fighting to overthrow him, but it has toned down its demands since it started working with Assad?s allies Russia and Iran. ?Assad is definitely a terrorist who has carried out state terrorism,? Erdogan told a televised news conference with his Tunisian counterpart Beji Caid Essebsi in Tunis. ?It is impossible to continue with Assad. How can we embrace the future with a president who has killed close to a million of his citizens??
