Ankara: Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday said that they will "definitely" solve Syria issue on the field after Sunday's local elections in Turkey.

"We will definitely solve Syria issue on the field, if possible, and not on the table, as the first work after elections," Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in an election rally in Istanbul.

Erdogan said that those who wish to close Turkeys southern borders with a terror corridor will never find a chance to do that.

"We have taught the necessary lesson to those who tried to do that and we will do the same to them in the future," he added. (QNA)
