Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu says once the Manbij model is completed, similar models will be applied to other areas of Syria that are under the occupation of PKK-linked YPG militants.
PKK-linked YPG militants will be disarmed under a roadmap drawn up by Turkey and the US for the group to leave Syria's Manbij, Turkey's Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Tuesday.
The roadmap on Manbij was announced after a meeting on Monday between Cavusoglu and his US counterpart Mike Pompeo in Washington DC.
The deal focuses on the withdrawal of the YPG from the northern Syrian city and bringing stability to the region.
The Turkish foreign minister said the roadmap was not "an international agreement" but rather "a bilateral roadmap."
"No third country will have a say in the Turkey-US deal whether it is France, United Kingdom or Belgium," he added.
However, the US has viewed the YPG as an ally in the Syrian conflict against Daesh, while Turkey insists the YPG should play no part in the US-led coalition.
