Rasmussen reiterates support for Turkey

Replying a question about Syrian crisis during a press conference on Monday, NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen reiterated NATO's commitment to support Turkey, saying that it would be surprising if a defense alliance like NATO did not have a plan to protect its all allies including Turkey. "NATO did not take any demand about putting Patriot missile launcher along Turkish-Syrian border. If asked, NATO member states would have to assess the demand," Rasmussen added.
