A few points to share with you now #Syria #Idlib #Russia #Turkey
The Russian-Turkish deal is valid for six months. Turkey will have to present all maps where its proxies are deployed and where jihadists and foreign figgers are deployed in the entire area of Idlib and surrounding+

#Syria and #Russia have the freedom to bomb all jihadists positions as included in the non-announced deal. Therefore there is no violation of the ceasefire unless, along the M4, Turkey fail to clear the Saraqeb-Latakia road and the Syrian army becomes under fire.

#Turkey asked until the 15th of March to clear jihadists or dislodge them (perhaps to other parts of Syria at the moment. That is not Russia/Damascus's problem) from the main axis agreed in #Moscow. Turkey said if Jihadists won't leave, Ankara shall not intervene in their favour.

#Saraqeb and the entire M5 will remain (including Tremba 2km away) and everywhere the Syrian army has liberated will remain under its own control. The Syrian army keeps control of all liberated cities with no withdrawal.

The #Moscow deal is an annexe to the 2018 Astana deal with modifications excluding the liberated area.
The M4 Saraqeb (outside the city) - Ariha - Oram al Jouz - Jisr al Shoughur - Bdama will be patrolled by the Russian and Turkish armies. Therefore cleared of jihadists.

In some areas along the M4, there are less than 6km and other less than 4 km. That is not a problem. The military delegation of both sides will figure it out on the ground.

#Turkey will pull out the groups under its wings like the Sultan Murad, sultan Salim, Zinki, Mo'tasem...

Why Erdogan insisted on meeting Putin? he asked to meet him in Ankara but Putin refused. Erdogan was happy to come to Moscow to close this war and talk about other issues.

You will have to wait for The explanation tomorrow evening when you will read my article.

Great news:

Four Jihadists top leaders (incl Moheysni) on telegram agreed they have "lost momentum" and "have no more decision on what to do or where they can be deployed" in #Syria. That " #Turkey is the decision-maker" and they have to obey because they "made many mistakes".
