Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu says he and new U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have agreed to approve an existing "road map" to getting Kurdish militia to withdraw from a Syrian town.

The plan came out of working groups set up earlier this year to soothe relations that became strained by Washington's support for Syrian Kurdish forces that Ankara considers a terrorist group.

Speaking after he met with Pompeo on Friday, Cavusoglu said that if the withdrawal doesn't happen, "we will be forced to intervene against the terrorists."
