Then there was the report of Mattis meeting with the heads of the Turkish and Russian armies, wasn’t there? With the idea of their partitioning areas of control in Syria?
What do we think of that in this context?
I’m for Kurds having their own nation.
They have long lived in Semi-autonomous zone in all 4 countries.
Assad will not want that.
Russia? I think they have some sympathy toward the Kurds. But they have been loyal to Syria.
Assad is not a good guy. (I still remember Lebanon) But he was not as brutal as Saddam. He should appreciate Kurds for saving the Northern portion of Syria from Turkish takeover, but he probably won’t.
I’m not sure how Trump views this.
