A majority of Turkish people oppose to any kind of intervention in Syria, a new survey has revealed, despite rising tension between Ankara and Damascus governments, according to Hurriyet Daily News.

The poll showed that 51 percent of respondents want Turkey to remain “impartial or uninvolved” in the conflict.

The survey was undertaken by TNS-Turkey on behalf of the Center for Economy and Foreign Policy Researches (EDAM) with 1,500 respondents in 18 provinces. Respondents were asked, “What sort of role should Turkey play in a post-al-Assad Syria?”

Of those surveyed, 18 percent supported Turkey’s potential role as a mediator between the conflicting parties in Syria, while 7 percent supported the idea of Turkey’s provision of economic aid to Syria.
