Turkish press: Russia went to rapprochement with the United States on Syria

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will soon have an important meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. The agenda is broad, but the main issue will be Syria, where Ankara and Moscow have completely different positions. In addition, Russia has gone to a rapprochement with the United States in Syria. Writes about this by the author of an article for the Turkish edition of Haber7.

Russia supports Bashar al-Assad, and he, in turn, is trying to finally destroy the Syrian opposition, the last stronghold of which is Idlib. There was another center of resistance of those who disagreed with Assad's policy in Daraa, but the Syrian government troops, with the support of the Russian aviation and Iranian mercenaries defeated him, forcing those who remained to retreat to Idlib.

Now Damascus, according to a Turkish observer, is targeting Idlib, which means that Syrian refugees will reappear in Turkey, which Erdogan does not need at all. At the same time, the author claims that Russia is already bombing Idlib, and Turkey is accused of all sins.

There is no doubt that the Idlib issue will be raised at the meeting in Moscow. Today Damascus controls 90% of Syrian territory, another 10% are under the control of the opposition. Putin bluntly said that the entire territory should be controlled by Assad, and in this the positions of Russia and Turkey differ.

The author makes the assumption that Putin, with a statement of 90 percent of control, actually recognized the autonomy of the Syrian Kurds, thereby starting a rapprochement with the United States, which also supports the Kurds' aspirations for autonomy. In addition, the positions of Moscow and Washington coincide with respect to the Al-Qaeda group (banned in Russia as a terrorist group).

Thus, Russia will support Assad, trying to crush the last stronghold of the opposition in Idlib, while Turkey will not allow Assad's government forces to do this. So far, everything will take place on the diplomatic front, but it is possible that the clashes will turn into a practical plane. In the meantime, Ankara has increased its military presence in Idlib.

The article was late, Syria demanded that the Turkish troops leave the territory of Syria.

[Cheshire]

We are always catching up, it's time to prepare for a war with Turkey, with the first number, without the defense of Sevastopol. Enough already preparing for the last war.

[tralflot1832]

Why fight with Turkey for the interests of Syria and Iran?

[Cheshire]

For our own, only for our own, of which we have a lot. With any exacerbation, the problem of spills is a bone in the throat.
Islamists with funding from Turkey, support for anti-Russian forces, non-recognition of Crimea by Russia, support for Ukraine ...

[tralflot1832]

So far, there are no prerequisites for us to close the straits. Our ships here are roaming around, even the military. The US aircraft carrier, looked out the window. Let's wait for a friendly conversation in Sochi.

I agree, not yet. I'm talking about the future.

[tralflot1832]

So we do not stop in the development of defense capabilities, the Black Sea Fleet during exercises in the Black Sea. I subtracted one amusing heresy, in the Crimea there is a Mine-based Bastion. What a beast this is.

I'm not talking about defense)

, I'm talking about the attack. Enough wars in our territory. It is necessary to transfer the hostilities to the aggressor.
I wrote about this in the first message: We are always catching up, it's time to prepare for war with Turkey, and the first number, without the defense of Sevastopol. Enough already preparing for the last war.

[tralflot1832]

And we are preparing for a modern war, it remains to solve the problem of target designation. In the WEST 2021, this was solved in the old fashioned way by surface ships and airplanes. It is also necessary to make a puddle with the Redgem as with the Black Sea.

And so that Turkey could not even think that the Crimea will grab itself! He does not recognize the elections in Crimea! Here, Ukraine, the integrity of which Erdogan so actively supports, is going to translate the Crimean Tatar language into Latin. Let Erdogan learn the "foreign language" better! )))

[tralflot1832]

Nobody recognized his North, Cyprus? And in general he has grief with him, his business does not want to go there. That is why he is offended.

I was going to translate the Crimean Tatar language into the Latin alphabet.

They can hardly write and read in Cyrillic, but here is Latin ...

Why click war? And then it will come ... You are aware of the alignment of forces in the Black and Mediterranean Seas, the strait, Turkey's membership in NATO (although recent events show the bloc's worthlessness. But still)

Therefore, we must prepare for war.
Believe me, I am never glad that I am writing, but there is no other way out and is not foreseen. (

[210ox]

It is necessary to prepare. Especially in the fleet. We are far behind Turkey in the maritime component.

[Trapp1st]

without the defense of Sevastopol.

It seems that if there is a war with Turkey, it will first of all be fought until the last Azerbaijani with an Armenian.

[Cheshire]

In my opinion, the ambitions of the Russian Federation and Turkey are much greater. We have been extinguishing each other for a long time, 12 wars. There is a trifle.

[Mountain shooter]

The hysteria of the Turks is becoming clearer. In Idlib, it is starting to "bake", and the Syrians have freed up forces in the south, and can significantly strengthen the grouping in the north. The Idlib barmaley will be squeezed, and the Turks will have to leave their strongholds. As it already was ... what should they do in the rear of the Syrian troops. You can't scare the Syrians with "Bayraktar" ... Here Erdogan and "sparkled" ... But he should go to the VVP for a meeting.

Here Erdogan and "sparkled" ... But he should go to the VVP for a meeting.

Erdogan, apparently, still has gunpowder in the flasks in the store. Here he is in front of Russia and "sparks". Those. blackmails the leadership of Russia and the Russians.

He is referring to yesterday's meeting of the chiefs of general staffs of the Russian Federation (Gerasimov) and the United States (Milli) in Helsinki. We met quietly, quietly crackled, quietly dispersed, without final briefings and joint press conferences, which leaves a wide field for conjectures and fantasies.
However, if we take into account the fact that there was a meeting between Assad and VVP on copper, then there are generals from the RF Ministry of Defense and the Pentagon, and a meeting between VVP and Edik is ahead, then the Syrian topic is almost certainly ventilated.

[rocket757]

Quote: Nyrobsky

the Syrian theme is ventilated.

There is such a topic, but where is the solution acceptable for the parties present in it, is this a question?
Although, there are superfluous, obviously extraneous, and we must begin with their removal.

[Nyrobsky]

Quote: rocket757

There is such a topic and this is where the solution is acceptable to the parties, present in it, is that a question?

Probably there is an exchange - the United States will not interfere in Idlib affairs, and Russia will not interfere with the registration of Kurdish autonomy under the patronage of the United States.
Along the way, we decided to jointly "punish" Ankara for displaying excessive ambitions and imperial claims to Libya, Syria, Iraq, Transcaucasia (with access to the Caspian Sea). Mattresses on Edik are also angry for the S-400 + Turks cling to NATO members (Greece and France). So here, in some positions that Turkey has climbed, the interests of the Russian Federation and the United States may coincide, since maintaining their confrontation at the same level will lead to an undesirable strengthening of Ankara's positions in the region. Somehow I think so ...

Too muddy, everything ... too many contradictions between "partners - fellow travelers".
It is clear that no one really wants to complicate what is already complicated, everyone has a whole load of problems. They cannot be solved quickly, but putting them on the back burner is fraught with danger!
In general, we will see.

[Ros 56]

Let him write, it's not carrying bags. We will look after our own interests, not Turkish ones. Politics is such a thing, everything seems to be quiet and logical, but as a result, some people have their eyes on their foreheads, as after the same Crimea. And you can't turn the minced meat back.

Russia has gone to a rapprochement with the United States on Syria.

Does Erdogan have a headache? I doubt. Until Russia, together with the Syrian troops, starts an operation to liberate the Idlib zone, the Turks will be sure that they are dictating their terms to Russia. But apparently this is where it goes. It's time for the Sultan to lead at least a little to adequate actions (normal combat).

[askort154]

Erdogan went berserk after Putin's meeting with Assad, suggesting that Assad promised autonomy to the Kurds in Syria. To which the United States did not mind either.
The belligerence of some on the VO website is surprising - give them a war with Turkey. Why not fight, lying on the couch, with the second army in NATO. The Montreux memorandum states that if Turkey enters a war with one of the countries of the Black Sea basin, then it has the right to close the Bosphorus.
Russia has already fought with Turkey 12 times, shedding a sea of ​​Russian blood. What, it is necessary to climb the rake 13 more times ?! This is complete insanity.
We have other levers of pressure on Turkey, we just need to apply them harshly, and not slobber with kisses.

Do not be surprised that the bot farms work on the site - the West steadily finances the information war. And for the West, a real war is very beneficial.

[cniza]

The agenda is broad, but the main issue will be Syria, where Ankara and Moscow have completely different positions.

Unfortunately, this task has no solution yet ...

[Andobor]

Yes, Russia is forcing Americans to fight against organizations banned in Russia.

[Sergei Khukharev]

In Idlib, the last stronghold of the armed opposition, which threatens the future peaceful life of the country, and not just the political opposition.

[Borisych]

At the wrong time, Erdogan decided to pretend to be a great warrior. In the army, nepotism ended all limits, chaos began. The economy is shaking with terrible force, unemployment and inflation are like we have after Gaidar's dances on the bones. An attempt to build a dictatorship of a lone sultan in Turkey will end as in September 1961 - Adnan Menderes, the ousted prime minister, was hanged, Finance Minister Hassan Polatkan and Foreign Minister Fatin Rustu Zorlu were executed. It is here that Chubais, having robbed all the people, is carried away by miracles. In Turkey, everything is simpler and everyone has their own soap.
