So who really supports the Kurds in Syria and Syria itself?

45
After the actual defeat of the Islamic State (* banned in the Russian Federation) in Syria, the question of the relationship of the Syrian center with one of the largest Syrian ethnic groups, the Kurds, is acute. One of the problems is that external forces are being used by the Kurds against Damascus, actually pushing them to engage in combat operations against the CAA outside the Kurdish territories in the SAR.

So who really supports the Kurds in Syria and Syria itself?




Another complication is the reluctance of Turkey to see the Kurds as a full-fledged side of the internal Syrian political settlement. Ankara is clearly afraid of the consolidation of Kurds in Syria, which (consolidation) may have an impact on 17 million Kurds living in Turkey.

The Syrian question was once again raised during the negotiations between Vladimir Putin and Recep Erdogan, who arrived a few days ago in Sochi. The leaders of the two countries did not ignore the question of the Kurds. This was actually confirmed by Turkish Foreign Minister авavusoglu, who literally stated the following:
We believe that a political decision is no less important than the military struggle against terrorists. Turkey will take into account Russia's proposal for convening a congress of Syrian parties, including Kurdish political forces.


After the talks, the head of the Kremlin’s press service, Dmitry Peskov, did not hide the fact that negotiations between the two presidents “were very difficult.”

Syrian journalist Riyad Farid Hijab publishes his comments on the Kurdish issue in the UAR. According to him, the issue of exile and destruction of ISIS (*) in Syria is almost resolved. Now the most important is the question of the territorial structure of the country. One of the areas of work is the new Syrian constitution, which would reflect the interests of all ethnic groups living in the republic. Among other things, the possibility of granting autonomy to the Kurds within federal Syria is being considered. Given the fact that not only Turks, but also the United States, are against the autonomy of the Kurds in Syria, it turns out that the Russian Federation is the main ally of the Kurds. Riyadh makes such a conclusion on the basis of a simple fact: it is Russia that is ready to support the creation of territorial Kurdish autonomy within the framework of a united Syria.

Negotiations, according to some sources, are already underway. One of the rounds of inter-Syrian talks with the presence of representatives of the Russian Center for the Reconciliation of the Parties was held in the city of Kamyshly. Recall that it was from there that the board was sent to Russia with the wives and children of the militants, who had previously left the North Caucasus in the UAR. The board landed in the Chechen Republic.

Without the tough position of Russia, the Kurds would have frankly little chance of obtaining autonomy, as there would be little chance for the whole of Syria to preserve its integrity and transition to a political settlement process.

        This is the problem. Some Kurds will be for autonomy within Syria and the allies of Syria will be friends with them, others for an independent Kurdish state. Thus, the place of ISIS is occupied by the Kurds, who will fight for the "independent state" (or rather for the clearing with oil) under the leadership of the United States.

          You are mistaken. In 2011, Syrian oil and gas reserves were not enough for 100% coverage of ATS needs. Now, after the destruction of industry, infrastructure and parts of power plants, surpluses have appeared that can be taken out. In terms of oil and gas reserves, Syria is at the 32 place in the world.

              The above photo is a famous lie. More precisely, not the photo itself, but an anti-Semitic inscription.

              In fact, this photo was openly published when the Israeli Prime Minister visited:



              Netanyahu visited the wounded Syrians in a field hospital in the Golan. February 18, 2014

              On Tuesday, February 18, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited a field hospital deployed by the Israeli military in the Golan to help the wounded coming from Syria. For the first time, the head of the Israeli government personally spoke with the citizens of Syria, who were brought to the Jewish state for treatment, as well as with the doctors who assist them.

              Benjamin Netanyahu was accompanied on this trip by Minister of Defense Moshe Yaalon, chief of the General Staff Beni Ganz, commander of the northern military district Yair Golan. Journalists from Israeli and foreign publications were also invited to the hospital.

              Journalists accompanying the delegation drew attention to the large number of children and adolescents in the hospital. All of them were injured as a result of hostilities between Assad’s troops and the opposition.


              "Israel cannot refuse to help people who are knocking on its door," Netanyahu emphasized in an interview with foreign journalists.



              After that, anti-Semites and simply haters of Israel redo the photo to denigrate Israel, naively believing that there will be narrow-minded people who believe in this nonsense, especially considering the fact that journalists were invited to this hospital, everything was done openly and most importantly, that Israel treats those delivered by the UN and there are no terrorists there.

                  Putin announced an imminent victory over terrorists in Syria


                  “There is every reason to believe - I will say carefully - that we will kill terrorists there (in Syria) in the near future,” the Russian leader said at a meeting of the Valdai international discussion club.

                  ...

                  The Russian leader added that the next stage after the launch of de-escalation zones could be the convening of a congress of the peoples of Syria “so that all ethnic religious groups, and the government, and opposition».


                  You all need to understand or still need to explain that Putin separates the terrorists from the opposition and speaks of convening a congress, including the opposition.

                  So stop writing nonsense about the fact that the opposition is terrorists and that Israel is financing terrorists.

      Not 20 million, but a little more than 40 million. At a time when the world was divided, no one really asked them. Anglo-Saxons did it taking advantage of their colonial advantage. Now the idea of ​​creating an independent Kurdistan also belongs to them, in order to be able to nightmare regional states with the hands of the Kurds and influence the laying of pipelines to Europe since Kurdistan will be a kind of castle on the way to their laying. The one who will control Kurdistan will control the energy flows of the region.

      Which ally? Who do you support? Erdogan - for example, put on Barzani. Barzani to him, Erdogan to Barzani rolled more often than to their wives. And the result? Barzani repainted as soon as possible and declared independence - all of Kurdistan.

      However, Barzani is not alone. General Kassem Suleimani and several Iranian Kurdish Sheikhs flew to Talabani. We talked with him. As a result - half of the Kurdish army (which Talabani) - went to Suleimaniya, collapsing the front of Barzani. With almost no resistance, the Iraqi army pushed Barzani to the 2003 line of the year.

      Syria is even more fun. There are Arfins Kurds. They agree on everything. Because they are clamped in the boiler. In the east, Turkish broads and Turkish vacationers. In the north is the Turkish army. In the west, HTS and Islamists. In the south there are pro-Turkish broads and the Syrian government army.

      Kurds at Eurfate (Kobani, Manbij) - wag. They do not want to give back even a meter of the conquered territory, but they also do not want to declare independence without guarantees.

      The Kurds of the eastern clans (Hasakke, Makadan, Darik) - they have one of the most powerful US and coalition presence (on the other hand, the Italian alpine shooters patrolled Dam in Iraq, but they fled ahead of the Kurds - when the Shiites broke into the dam) - they have rich Oil deposits (both in Khasak and in DeZ). And they are committed to independence. Moreover, the Communists (RKK) consider these Kurdish clans traitors and almost wage a war against them.

      Neutrality. Nusrachs allowed Turkish women and vacationers to create a western area of ​​attack on the Arfin Kurds.

      Only there is not only Nusra. There are still a lot of all sorts of broads there. For example, TIP is the Turkestan Caliphate, it is not nosra. There is also Val Ansar - a cozy Caucasian Emirate in Idlibshchyna. There is a bunch of Kataib - some eat from the hands of Turkish intelligence, some still receive assistance from the kingdoms in transit through Turkey.

      In general, Idlib has thousands of 30 broads now. Plus there are still women of the Southern Front. Although the King ceased their support, other kingdoms transit them through Jordan.

      Here is a large map of the entire region. In addition to the classics. White in green is the Islamists. In Lebanon - blue is a place of support and fighting with the Islamists.
