Regarding the policy of the Turkish state in al-Bab, Abu Juma said: "The Turkish state is putting pressure to change the demography of al-Bab's population. It consciously stirs up conflicts between the various groups. The militias exert pressure on the civilian population. Turkey wants to change the demography of the region and strengthen the control of militias across the region."
