The Policy of the YPG in Syria Is Controversial

Since US supports YPG-PYD and Russia supports regime forces, the policy of PYD-YPG in terms of handing over territory to the regime will not continue for a long time.

Talha Köse stated that there are repercussions on the issue but there is no clear evidence that YPG is handing over the territory to the regime. According to Köse, if this happens, this will be a controversial policy because YPG-PYD is cooperating with US and regime forces are cooperating with Russia, so, their policies are not in line with each other. Talha Köse emphasized that if this happens, this will be a tactical move and this will not continue for a long time, but in the broader planning, dealing with ISIS and Raqqa is a major issue for the region.
