Syrian Kurdish leaders ask Assad for peace talks

49

Syrian Kurdish leaders turned to President Bashar al-Assad with a proposal to begin full-fledged peace talks. A letter to Damascus said that efforts must be made to “break the current impasse in northern Syria.”

The so-called self-government council of northern and eastern Syria says that they are not going to follow the path of dividing Syria into several states. It is noted that in his interview, Bashar al-Assad “in vain” accused them of such attempts.



Recall that the official Damascus notes the following: leaders of armed groups in northern Syria often conflict with each other and sometimes put forward mutually exclusive demands. So, some require the definition in the constitution of such a concept as "Northern Kurdistan", not to mention the specific boundaries of this geographical entity. Others speak of a federation of Northern Syria without mentioning the ethnic composition of those living in these territories.

The only thing the Kurdish formations converge on is their readiness to confront the pro-Turkish groups, including the so-called Syrian Free Army. To this end, leaders of several Kurdish groups expressed their readiness for joint operations with the Syrian government army (SAA).

The next discussion of the issues of political settlement in the Astana format should be held in December this year. Such information was reported in Kazakhstan. The main result of the negotiations should be the gathering of the Constitutional Council in Syria, which should determine the new basic law of the state.

      If this is not a political "feint" aimed at bargaining, then we can say that the Kurds are beginning to wake up to a realistic thinking.
      It turns out it was necessary to step sharply on the rake and the little head begins to think.
      I wonder how much time it will take for our neighbors from the west, living on the banks of the Dnieper for the same reformatting?

          Kurdish General Mazlum Abdi, commander of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDS), threatened the United States to seek help from the Syrian authorities and Russia if Washington did not stop the operation. In a conversation with Robak, Abdi insisted that the United States either stop the Turkish operation or allow the Kurds to strike a deal with the Syrian government and Russia, allowing Russian military aircraft to establish a no-fly zone over northeastern Syria, which would prevent Turkey from striking Syrian territory.
          US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper said last Friday that the US remains in close coordination with the Syrian Democratic Forces, but I’m not going to deploy US troops to the epicenter of a long-standing conflict between Turks and Kurds, we’re not in Syria for this, ”said Esper

            Kurds have to choose the lesser of evils for themselves. And, Assad in their respect is really less evil than other participants in the confrontation.

            This is the fault of the Kurdish leaders themselves. They chose their political interests as a lobbyist and submitted to the chaos instigator in their lands. The trouble for the Kurds because of this betrayal is only beginning and no matter how they end, the complete disappearance of Kurdistan.

        Until we completely turn off the economic contacts with them, which to one degree or another keep these "neighbors" afloat, until then it will not be possible to achieve enlightenment and reformatting.

        Yes, when it’s already hot. Only a local increase in temperature was actively helped by the joint actions of Russia, Turkey, Syria, to a lesser extent - Iran. And so the correct thoughts would not have come through.
        Maybe this is one of the main reasons why there is still no such country on the map of the Middle East - Kurdistan? There is no ideological unity in the Kurds. Economic unity is possible only for a short time - while it is profitable. Were led to the "buns" from the United States, now they are over, they are again looking for where it is more profitable ...

          Erdogan is a wise politician. He stood on the same side as the VKS even when he didn’t have C-400, when a Russian diplomat was viciously shot, and Soushka was shot down no less viciously. Perhaps this is also why he is still alive.

        Not only VKS but also green men from the forces of the MTR. Kurds want to eat fish and something else to do. It always happens when they want to live not badly under two masters, especially in the east. Main Assad does not back down from the plan to reunite Syria and defeat everyone without exception, forces directed against the SAR. ISIS appeared only at the end of the aggression, but the first main enemy that destroyed the country was the SSA and other hired hussar including Kurdish formations. They are not defeated and change their skin in order to survive and earn on this preference ..

        The question begs: are they themselves ready for such a turn of events?
        As we learn from recent history, without the historical experience of statehood, not every nation can dispose of such a gift of fate for its benefit.
        Even now, the Kurds are divided into many groups.
        Although it would seem that it prevents to unite in a single fraternal impulse?
        The answer is one. There is no land collector in the person of a particular person.

          And it won't. As the saying goes: "Divide and conquer!" United Kurds are no longer needed by either Syria, or Russia, or Iran, and, especially, Turkey. Therefore, as soon as he is drawn, the "land gatherer" will be rolled into the same land very quickly.

        Here Assad of tarapis is not a nada. Tarapisa is not a nada. Time works against the Kurds. Without the categorical intervention of Russia and / or Syria, the Turks will continue to wrinkle the Kurds to the stop. Ps are unlikely to openly interfere in the database, because it will be a war within NATO. Assad and Putin from these constantly repainted Kurds are also one hemorrhagic. Therefore, for Erdogan there is almost constantly lit green. And every day the Kurds will become more accommodating and accommodating.

      If this happened 2 or 3 years ago, that would be good news. And Assad, now, must show that today he needs to come to him not with offers, but with requests. He is the guarantor of the Constitution that will be, not the Kurds. The Kurds made their choice when they became friends with the United States. Code spat at all.

      Assad, of course, realizes that it is not necessary, or rather, early to negotiate with the Kurds, early to bargain. Turkey must complete the division of the Kurds, create a buffer zone. Then no one will say anything about "Northern Kurdistan". So far, Turkey, Syria and the Russian Federation are natural allies and we can only talk about the "surrender" of the Kurds, and not about "separate" negotiations. Woe to the vanquished ...

      Every day the maneuvers for trade with the Kurds are less and less. They wanted to win everything, then to win at least something, then not to lose much, but now they began to understand that everything can be lost. Not only is there not a single ally left, so the situation is going to ensure that only enemies remain around.
