Turkey's Stance on SDF and Kurdish Conflict
The Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) have been announced as an independent military entity, with their institutions integrated into the Syrian state's formal structures following an agreement between Syrian President Ahmad al-Shirawi and the leadership of the SDF. This development comes after 14 years of US-backed self-administration and aims to end the Kurdish autonomous rule in northeastern Syria and incorporate the Kurdish population into the official framework of the state. The implementation includes issuing decrees that enable Abdi to become an advisor to the president, integrating Kurdish leaders into the parliament, teaching the Kurdish language in predominantly Kurdish areas, and incorporating the Kurdish Women’s Protection Units (YPJ) into the Ministry of Interior to combat terrorism. This step is viewed as part of broader strategic plans heavily influenced by Turkey and the influence of Abdullah Ocalan, with the goal of ending the conflict between Turkey and the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), reducing US support for Kurdish autonomy, and limiting Kurdish political and military options, despite the continuation of the Kurdish political project.
