A member of the Presidency of the Democratic Union Party (#PYD), Aldar Khalil, stressed that the Syrian opposition “was and still is a means to achieve Turkish agendas, despite showing the extent of the failure of its bet.”
The Kurdish leader's statements came after a wave of protests in the Turkish-backed areas in northwestern Syria, in response to the statements of the Turkish regime´s Foreign Minister, Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu.
Khalil said that “Turkey used the Syrian opposition when it occupied areas of Syria such as Idlib, Jarablus, Al-Bab, Azaz, Afrin, Girê Spî (Tal abyad) and Serê kaniyê."
In response to a question regarding the fate of the opposition in the event of an agreement between Erdogan and Assad, Khalil said that Turkey will dispense with the “opposition” and that its importance declines for Erdogan after he gets everything he wants.
Aldar Khalil pointed out that “the Autonomous Administration warned the opposition that their cooperation with Turkey puts them in the position of mercenary. But they claimed and still are a national opposition.”
Khalil explained that Erdogan exploited the “opposition” to pressure Damascus in order to obtain many concessions from Russia, in addition to the fact that it “created ISIS and helped the development of Al-Qaeda, supported the Muslim Brotherhood"
Khalil also stressed that the Turkish interference in the Syrian affairs and the Syrian revolution was the reason for the prolongation of the Syrian crisis and the failure to reach a solution to it until today.
