US in Idlib attempted to drive a wedge between Russia and Turkey

58
In the ribbons of social networks, where militants noted, you can see photos of representatives of terrorist groups against the background of Turkish military equipment and weapons. Syrian journalist Riyadh Farid Hijab believes that this is a well-thought-out information operation by Western intelligence agencies, of course the goal of which are attempts to reintroduce a wedge in relations between Moscow and Ankara.

We are talking about publications from the province of Idlib, where the so-called de-escalation zone was created earlier and in which there are Turkish military, called to monitor the implementation of the cease-fire.





The submission claims that the United States supplied the pro-Turkish forces in Idlib with weapons even before the Turkish servicemen themselves turned out to be in this Syrian province. For this purpose, the weapons supply scheme was used, supposedly to Kurdish detachments. As a result, the Kurds were left without the lion’s share of the equipment that the States had originally promised to supply. It is for this reason, as noted, that the United States actively supported the creation of a de-escalation zone in Idlib with Turkish participation. The pro-Turkish forces, after deliveries from the United States, for understandable reasons, were ready to carry out the tasks that were assigned to them by their American partners.

Recall that it was from the territory of Idlib that the well-known attacks on the Russian Khmeimim air base in the province of Latakia were carried out. Earlier, the RF Ministry of Defense disseminated information that the special forces had eliminated the militants involved in the attack on Khmeimim and completely destroyed the production capacity for strike drones.

    It is clear that Western intelligence agencies will not miss this. But Turkey is pursuing its goals, and by and large it does not give a damn about Russia. I won’t be surprised if the Turks give us another surprise.

      What's the point? Turks (like Iraq, Syria and Iran) are more interested in frustrating the US plans to create an independent Kurdistan than in battling with Russia. Naturally, there are a lot of questions that everyone wants to solve in their favor, but all are one in one - the Kurds can get their autonomy, but not independence, which unites them all against US actions. Well, so that this unity would not be very close, the United States arrange provocations in order to push their opponents with their foreheads.

      It’s just that Erdogan once again sent his “moderate” to Assad and even gets to our base from their pressure. And here they present him as a negotiable friend, but the Americans just muddied the water. Kurds are separate, and the Turkish regions of Syria are also separate. He’s already there five he has been driving a wave for years, but he has a strong position:
      - strains sensitive to us under his control.
      -Turkey is in such a state that it is easier for them to attract army units in the Syrian war and we see it constantly that they do not hesitate to transfer to the borderlands and enter into battle as much as necessary, covering these deployments with powerful reinforcement from their territory and the presence of reserves. And Russia cannot afford to transfer and bring into battle a full-fledged army group. Therefore, the "moderate" are not worried about their rear and this allows them to fight almost on equal terms with a weakened Assad. Therefore, everything is so unsteady there.

        I do not agree that we got a "rebound". It was a well-prepared and planned action that pursues several goals:
        1. Revenge, 2. Testing the combat effectiveness of our anti-aircraft missile systems for unobtrusive targets, 3. Testing the tactics of attacking our targets with a lot of stealth drones, 4. The basis for statements by our so-called "off-system opposition" that Putin again "leaked" everything by elections, 5 and to discredit Putin’s statement that ISIS covered itself with Russian support. Based on the set of goals, I assume that the action was carried out by order and with the support of striped "partners".

          From the evidence of your version, we only have that the attacks were carried out by forces nurtured by Turkey from the territory controlled by it. And you can’t cover it up, and the United States seems to be everywhere. Here, yesterday I laid it out late at night, but now it’s not lost relevance. But blaming us on the taboo site Erdogan, because our leadership is doing business with him, so it's easiest to blame everything on Omerik.

          Turkey expressed dissatisfaction with the rapid offensive of the Syrian government army in the most densely populated de-escalation zone "Idlib" on its border. “The regime’s forces are moving forward in Idlib, Russia and Iran must fulfill their obligations and stop them,” Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Wednesday (quoted by Anadolu). He added that the Turkish army began to deploy a fourth observation post in the largest region of Idlib province, controlled by moderate Syrian opposition.
          In response, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported that drones attacking Russian bases on the night of January 6 were launched from the southwestern part of the Idlib zone, controlled by moderate opposition. In this regard, the Ministry of Defense sent letters to the Chief of General Staff and the Director of Intelligence of Turkey, indicating the need for Ankara to fulfill its obligations to control the ceasefire and "intensify the work of setting up observation posts in the Idlib de-escalation zone in order to suppress such attacks" https: / /www.vedomosti.ru/politics/articles/2

            I don’t understand why you decided that I was blocking Turkey. Turkey has never been friendly to us. There is neutrality between us now, although our interests in Syria are opposite. Those circumstances that I see speak of mattress provocation. The fact that they used for the attack territory that is to some extent controlled by the Turks is logical - they are not such stupid people as to run into a military conflict open with us. And the Turks will come out more than once that they were crap in Syria. Who is protecting Erdagan here? He is the same foe - at any moment he will shoot in the back, but not yet time - there is no weighty argument.

Turkey is “tearing it away” from Europe and NATO (consider the USA), and the smiles and hugs of the Turks do not deceive anyone. Turkish Stream is a double-edged sword.

    After the attack on our base, the MO quickly took a look at the situation. They advanced in Idlib, even took the airfield, if I am not mistaken, having, so to speak, full moral right to counterattack. So that there would be no disagreements, the president said that he understood the whole situation and the machinations of enemies.) They bit off a piece - bite off two! Everything is fine.

    Judging by the fact that Erdogan called Putin when he was at a meeting with representatives of our media in Komsomolskaya Pravda, the call was important.
    I believe Erdogan reported the result of "his" investigation into the attack on Khmeimim. The attack had two goals - to humiliate the Russian air defense and drive another wedge between the Russian Federation and Turkey. This is a continuation of the "chain" of the CIA - the downed Su-24 and the murder of our ambassador Andrei Karlov. Rapprochement between Turkey and Russia is a big hemorrhoids for the USA.

    Our enemies are trying to change the existing alignment of forces in Syria: they either support the unrest in Iran to weaken their activity, or they try to (partially carry out) sabotage on our bases (on New Year's Eve and Christmas), on the one hand, in the hope of provoking a negative reaction among the Russian population against the Ministry of Defense, on the other hand, they are trying to link these sabotage with another ally (albeit situational).
    Fortunately, they failed to achieve their goals - on the contrary, their evil appearance looms even more clearly, in words they are against the terrorists in fact, they are allies.
