| [Rudaw] A top Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) commander on Thursday claimed that in the early years of the Syrian uprising, ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire... considers the YPG a terror organization and has launched several military operations against the force. Murat Karayilan, a top PKK commander, told his party’s Sterk TV during an interview aired on Thursday that Turkey in 2013 offered to give the YPG anything it wanted if the group helped Ankara and its Syrian mercenaries topple Bashir al-Assad’s regime. Ankara has been the main backer of opposition groups in the fight against the regime since the onset of the uprising. |
