U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper said on Monday he will meet with NATO allies next week to press them to take "diplomatic and economic measures" in response to Turkey's operation into Syria.

In a statement, Esper said Turkey's military action "was unnecessary and impulsive" and could result in the resurgence of Daesh terrorists.
