Russia inks deal with Turkey over Syria

Russian President Vladimir Putin has inked a historic deal with Turkey President Recep Tayyip Erdogan over the issue of the Syrian Kurds, which recently suffered a military attack from Istanbul.

The agreement allows the Turkish forces to retain the regions they have already captured from the Syrian Kurds. And, moreover, it demands the removal of the Syrian Kurds far way from the Turkish border.

No Syrian Kurd leader has commented about the agreement yet. It remains unclear whether the Syrian Kurds will agree to the agreement reached between Russia and Turkey.

The agreement keeps largely silent over the matter of Qamishii, the most sensitive area which comes under the territory from which the agreement asks the Kurds to leave – where the Syrian Kurds are concentrated in large numbers, especially after the commencement of the Turkish offensive.

It is assumed that the Syrian Kurds is less likely to agree to an agreement which asks them to leave Qamishii.

The coming hours are very crucial. The agreement gives only 150 hours for the Syrian Kurds to act.
