After the fall of Bashar, things are getting tougher and tougher in Syria where several factions want a good outcome that can restore some peace to the country, but above all ensure non-interference in “their affairs”
The Kurdish administration in northeastern Syria, among others, does not want to leave anything to chance and, sensing that a “danger” could come from Turkey, wants to rush things and fly towards what it sees adequate solution to save Syria
Indeed, and taking the issue at face value, the Kurdish administration in northeast Syria expressed its concerns to US President-elect Donald Trump earlier this week about an imminent Turkish incursion and urged him to put pressure on on President Recep Tayyip Erdogan not to deploy troops across the border, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing senior US officials.
Turkey’s goal is to “establish de facto control over our territory before you take office, forcing you to engage with them as leaders of our territory,” wrote Ilham Ahmed, the co-head of the Kurdish administration, to Trump in a letter cited by the newspaper. Ahmed warned Trump of the “catastrophic” consequences of a full-scale Turkish invasion if it launched the military operation against the US-backed Syrian Kurds.
