In the operation launched by the Syrian army against the PKK/YPG, the terrorist organization, which suffered heavy blows and was forced to surrender, received another blow from an unexpected source. The President of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Iraq, Masoud Barzani, stated that the terrorist organization PKK/YPG is a burden on the Kurds in Syria.
While a 4-day deadline was given for the integration of YPG/PKK into the Damascus administration in Syria, another blow came to the PKK after the US. The President of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Iraq, Masoud Barzani, made striking statements regarding the PKK.
AGREEMENT SIGNED
The operation launched by the Syrian army on January 16 against the terrorist organization YPG/SDF later expanded with the participation of tribes in the eastern regions of the river, and a large portion of the territory occupied by the organization came under the control of the Syrian administration.
The Ceasefire and Full Integration Agreement reached between the Damascus administration and YPG/SDF includes provisions such as the complete withdrawal of the organization from the Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor provinces east of the Euphrates River, the transfer of public institutions in Hasakah to the state, the central authority's control over all border gates and energy resources, and the individual integration of YPG/SDF elements into the security forces. The Syrian Ministry of Defense announced that a ceasefire was declared within the framework of the 4-day deadline granted to the terrorist organization YPG/SDF for integration. In a statement made by the terrorist organization YPG/SDF, it was stated, "We are fully committed to the ceasefire."
US ENDED PARTNERSHIP WITH YPG
While the terrorist organization is being cleared from Syria, the US Special Representative for Syria, Tom Barrack, stated that the YPG has completely lost its status as the primary partner in the fight against the ISIS terrorist organization in Syria, as it is now a state in Syria. Barrack called on the YPG to integrate into Damascus.
STRIKING WORDS FROM BARZANI
While the process continues in this way, a striking statement came from Masoud Barzani, the President of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Iraq, who has been in dialogue with Ahmed Shara and Mazlum Abdi for a long time.
"PKK HAS BECOME A BURDEN TO THE KURDS IN SYRIA"
In an interview with a television channel, Masoud Barzani stated that the terrorist organization PKK/YPG has become a burden to the Kurds in Syria.
"TIME TO LET THE KURDS BE"
In his statement regarding the terrorist organization, Barzani said:
"It is time for the PKK to let the Kurds in Syria decide their own future. The PKK should no longer interfere in their affairs and must leave Syria. Its presence is a major problem and serves as an excuse for Turkey to intervene. In other words, the presence of the PKK has become a burden for the Syrian Kurds."
