Raqqa...
The YPG removed from Manbij has long ago been done. They did continue to support them when needed. And Manbij sent forces to help defend Efrin (Afrin). They are a close tight knit group.
Everywhere that YPG and SDF liberated is now run by locals and life is peaceful. Every place that Turkey took control of in Syria is in constant conflict and the Islamist Militias are fighting.
There is NO WAY the the YPG will disarm and move to the East of the Euphrates River. Erdogan can demand and Cavusoglu can dream, but it is NOT going to happen.
Turkey invaded Efrin (Afrin) in January, for over 2 months they fought the YPG in order to take the city of Efrin. They are sill fighting off attacks.
For the past 2 months Turkey has invaded Iraq and nearby places with large forces. They are attempting to take Qandril, Turkey is taking heavy casualties daily. And are no where close to their target.
I'm personally sick of listening to Erdogan the Islamist's demands. He is not an ally, to NATO or to the US. Can Turkey be saved? Nobody knows. The election are on the 24th. We wait.
Lots of face-saving for Erd going on. Oh well, diplomacy is what it is. And he did get Idlib and most of Aleppo.
Seems to me Turk/US co-patrolling is fraught with opportunities for bad outcomes. Though it will be a big confidence builder if all goes well.
