Turkey on Tuesday called for determined action from NATO member states against the "significant" threat posed by Islamic State jihadists who have taken swathes of Iraq and Syria up to its borders.

Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said in Antalya that the threat from ISIS to the south of the NATO alliance's borders would be a key issue when its top diplomats hold a two-day meeting from Wednesday in the southern resort city, according to AFP

He praised a plan - still yet to be realized - for moderate Syrian opposition to be trained and equipped on Turkish territory in cooperation with the United States but said more was needed.

"This will be effective but this will not be enough on its own and we have to take further steps," he told a news conference ahead of the meeting, adding that measures like air strikes were also not sufficient alone.

"In order to eradicate terrorism we need to deal with the grassroots of terrorism," he added, without elaborating further on the nature of the steps required.
