US Vice President Biden on Saturday apologized to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for saying that the Turkish leader had admitted that his country made mistakes by allowing foreign fighters to cross into Syria, Fox News reports.
Biden spoke directly to Erdogan to “clarify” comments made on Thursday at Harvard University and apologized for “any implication" that Turkey or other allies had intentionally supplied or helped in the growth of the Islamic State or other extremists groups in Syria, the White House said.
Erdogan denied making such remarks and said Biden would become "history to me" over the comments at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, unless he fixed the situation.
