      to put pressure on official Damascus so that by the end of February it would withdraw its forces from its gained positions in the province and liberate the entire zone.
      And why didn’t they immediately suggest that Russia put pressure on Damascus with the goal of surrendering to the terrorists? A familiar picture both in Chechnya and in LDNR - as soon as bandits are pressed hard, their sponsors immediately begin to worry and propose negotiations. And in this case, they impose impossible conditions. The Syrian army paid with its blood for the occupied positions, and now Erdogan wants them to withdraw. Erdogan’s arrogance and excessive self-esteem will not lead to good. I hope (I'm sure) ours will not go to such conditions.

        Gennady hi -the desire to dominate the region and have free oil prevails over common sense that the same militants can simply scatter or hit the Turks, realizing that they were thrown for slaughter.

          It seems that along with the desires of the Turks, there is an understanding that strikes against the Syrians and, probably, the Iranian forces in Idlib can cause attacks on Turkish targets on the territory of Turkey itself. actions of Kurdish militants will appear like flowers ... If there was no understanding, they could take the same Idlib troops as sowing. Cyprus. But they did not, for they are calculating the possible consequences.
          Such a military conflict will cause, in addition to thousands of victims of Turkish military and civilians, an economic catastrophe in the tourism business, curtailing economic cooperation with the Russian Federation (and they waved to bring trade to $ 100 billion), and the Kurds attacked with the support of the Syrians east of Efrat. Moreover, aviation is unlikely to be applied for well-known reasons.

          but here they constantly minus "in a fit of passion" when expressing interests that are different from those of Russia.
          only not always the interests of Russia are fully understood by the forum users themselves.
          according to Idlib: that Turkomans are relatives of the Turks is a fact.
          the fact that they hate Assad, and they don’t want to go under him, either.
          It is also a fact that in Turkey itself there are about 4 !!! million refugees from Syria who are not eager to return and need to be fed and watered for YEARS, and Ed understands that during the storming of Idlib the number of refugees may double.
          it is a reality for Turkey and Ed, as a national leader, SHOULD do something.
          Idlib for Edik is the only way to create a buffer zone, pushing everyone there.
          Favorite fighters and unloved.
          Understand that he simply has nothing to do with these millions.
          Where to let them into Turkey if he cannot control them in Idlib ?!
          let them go to Turkey and then how did the Russians want to go to Antalya, Side and Alanya, did you want terrorist attacks?
          What is the interest of the Russian Federation?
          in my opinion the normal situation, everyone in Idlib and let them boil in their own juice, the more they live there anyway. This is exactly what Edik had in mind when speaking of the people protecting their homes.
          Well, minuserra, alga!

      Negotiations about what? The fact that the Turks simply do not want to return Syria to its land? That Erdogad, like Trump, simply vilely annexed the oil-bearing and strategic areas of Syria? At the same time, trump is hiding behind the Kurds, such as doing everything for their benefit, even oil is stolen by the United States at the request of the Kurds, it must be assumed. Turks just want to have an empire, at the expense of foreign lands. The Kremlin needs to put the Turks in place! If we signed there for something, then there can be no partial result! We must go to the end, demand from the Turks, since they lied that for the integrity of Syria, like us, like the Iranians, let Erdogad withdraw his military occupiers from Syria. There is no other solution to the question.

      The Turks are now trying to stop the breakthrough. The outcome of the negotiations depends on whether they can seize the initiative. Therefore, they have been postponed. CAA and Shiites escaped into the operational space. As I wrote, they bypass Idlib from the east, several kilometers remain to Kafr Nuran. Further north in front of them are more plains. On the plain, the barmaley have a tight time. There is a chance to grind their skeleton there. Force them to send reinforcements from the mountains there and weaken the defense in other directions.

        It seems to me that Kafr Nuran himself is not the main thing. The main thing in this throw is to block the route from Idlib to the Turkish border. in order to block the oxygen to the barmales in Idlib with the help of the Turks. And the Turks would not be able to transfer their equipment to his defense.

      What is interesting about this large-scale victorious offensive by saa? the greens lose dozens of settlements that they have been holding for years, while there are virtually no clashes, the losses are ridiculous, you can’t even see the traditional photo reports with corpses for the war, the Turks put up posts to cover the rebels' departure and at the same time take away the entire population from cities and villages, to which saa is about to enter. Asadovtsy enter empty towns.
      the question is - where did the Turks need several hundred thousand (according to some sources, more than a million) peacekids?
      after the demonstrative surrender of sarakib, it became clear to me that this was a pure agreement. it remains to wait a few days and see what our part of the deal is.

      So without Kafr Nurana no oxygen can be shut off. Capturing it, saa gets a number of options: to take the height of Kafr sandalwood near the highway to Idlib and block it with fire, go further north and cross at Batab, for example. Plus along the piece of iron to hit the rear of the barmaley at Aleppo. There are no options.
