US president claims Kurds are 'no angels' and are well protected after Ankara pushes into Syria; says he is fine with Russia filling vacuum after American troop withdrawal
Turkish leader says quickest way to resolve the conflict is for Kurd militants to lay down their arms and leave Ankara's self-declared 'safe zone' in north of country
Vice president says Trump spoke with Erdogan and asked him to to 'stop the invasion;' US is 'simply not going to tolerate Turkey's invasion of Syria any longer'
