Dorian Jones

   ISTANBUL - Syria is set to top the agenda of talks Tuesday between
   Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and French, British and German
   leaders on the sidelines of the London NATO summit.

   Ankara is facing criticism over its military operation into Syria
   targeting a Kurdish militia, while Erdogan is seeking European backing
