Türkiye’s reaction to the decision of the satellite body of PKK for elections in Syria

According to the international group Tasnim news agency, these days northern Syria has once again become insecure and the evidence It shows that the people of this region, again due to the consequences of the military tension between Turkey and the satellite organizations of the terrorist group P. K. K, they face insecurity.

The new Turkish drone attacks in Qamishlu, the capital of Syria’s Haskeh province, showed that apparently this area is not going to see peace for now. Turkish drone attacks on Friday evening in northeastern Syria killed four US-backed fighters and wounded 11 civilians.

These people are members of the so-called “Syrian Democratic Forces” (SDF). For many years, its weapons, ammunition and combat and training needs have been provided by the United States. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, during a military exercise in Izmir Maritime Province, along with Defense Minister General Yashar Güler, He appeared before the reporters and answered their questions.

He openly declared that he is firmly opposed to American policies and believes that the American support for the PKK terrorist group in northern Syria It endangers the interests of Turkey and the security of the region.

Erdogan also used the term “terrorist camp” and announced that he will not allow America to build a terrorist camp in northern Syria. This term from Erdogan is an irony about the possibility of forming an autonomous political structure and unit centered on the Kurds of northern Syria.

Erdogan threatened that if the activities of Kurds under P. K. In order to hold local elections in northern Syria, drone attacks will continue and, if necessary, other military tools and solutions will be used.

Syrian Democratic Forces said that drone attacks hit their positions eight times and Also, civilian houses and vehicles were hit in and near the northern city of Qamishlo. While the aid workers were trying to reach the attacked areas, the Turkish attack on one of the aid ambulances made the situation more complicated, and any movement of the SDF forces in Qamishlo and Amouda is in the crosshairs of Turkish airstrikes.

What does the US say?
Turkish political analysts believe that the disagreement about the continuation of the US support for the satellite institutions of P. K. K is one of the most important political and security differences between Ankara and Washington. From the point of view of Turkish officials and analysts of the intelligence service of this country, America wants to pave the way for the establishment of a Kurdish state in northern Syria in a gradual process. But Washington officials have announced that the election of the satellite institutions of P. K. They do not support in the north and east of Syria. /05/1402110513085536529256114.jpg”/>
Vedant Patel, Deputy Spokesman of the US Department of State, said: “Every election held in Syria must be free, fair, transparent and inclusive, this is the same issue as in Resolution 2254 It has also been emphasized by the United Nations Security Council.

Vedant Patel added that the United States “does not believe that free and fair competition has been established in the elections that are to be held in northeastern Syria and As a result, such a thing is not transparent and no one should expect that the US will support it”. Is. However, Turkish analysts say, this is the usual contradictory behavior of America in the Middle East and the difference between Washington’s declarative and practical policies that no one should be fooled by.

Satellite institutions P. K. What do they say?
The group called “Democratic Union Party” (PYD), which is the most important satellite organization of K. known in Syria, had already planned to hold elections at the end of May. But now it has postponed the date of holding elections in the areas under its control to June 11, 2024.

The organization that arbitrarily called itself “the autonomous administration of the northern and eastern parts of Syria”, voting for the election The mayors in the provinces of Hasaka, Raqqa, Deir Ezzor and the eastern part of Aleppo have considered it as a popular need whose purpose is to serve the people and not to establish a new government.

This Kurdish-Arabic institution under the command PKK has announced that in the cities of Tel Hamis, Tel Kocher and Amuda of the canton of the island, they have all faced Turkish drone and artillery attacks, and these behaviors are an example of the policy of genocide, encirclement of the region and attempts to break the will of the people. Their fight is for democracy.

This institution asked the people of northern and eastern Syria to participate in the elections and believe that such an action is a big step to receive free services without expectations for the entire people of the region.

One of the usual tactics of PKK is to create several similar cartoon parties and organizations with different names, which it can use to pretend that in one region, entire groups and political spectrums are in the field of struggle, and so on. KKK is just one of them. Yesterday, in line with the continuation of this policy, 33 political, social and women’s parties and movements in the north and east of Syria published a written statement about Turkey’s threats regarding the municipal elections.

But a review of the names, symbols and flags of these groups shows that only 3 of them are old and independent, and the other groups are all under the command of PKK.

The statement reads: “We, the political parties and forces that have signed this statement, reaffirm that there is no intention to separate from Syria in the autonomous management project and we want to protect the unity of Syria.” We also ask the United Nations and the international coalition to fulfill their duties to end the Turkish government’s attacks against us. We ask our citizens to gather around the experience of the autonomous administration and protect it in every way”.

At the same time as trying to hold illegal elections in northern Syria, several ceremonies were held in sports stadiums in which banners And large photos of Abdullah Ocalan, the leader of the PKK terrorist group, were placed and the audience asked Turkey to change the conditions of Ocalan’s solitary confinement on Imre Ali Island.

Is Turkey attacking?
Reviewing the movements of the Kurds in northern Syria was the most important topic of the recent meeting of the Turkish Supreme National Security Council (MGK), which was held under the chairmanship of Erdogan. .

After the meeting of the Supreme National Security Council of Turkey, there was no mention of a ground military attack, but this council announced that Turkey will not allow the PKK’s satellite organizations to act against Ankara.

Ankara has announced that at the informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Prague, the issue of the threats of the PKK and its satellite organizations to the north of Syria was stated by Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and Erdogan himself. He also raises this issue at the NATO summit in America.
