Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said that his country is ready to take part in any international coalition against Syria.

However, he stopped short of saying whether that would include military action.

"We have said that we are ready to take part in any kind of coalition and we perceive this as a coalition of volunteers," Erdogan said, according to World Bulletin.

Erdogan said last week that an intervention against Syria should be aimed at bringing an end to the rule of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and cautioned against limited strikes that could leave the regime in place.
