Trump wont change his policy regarding the PKK/YPG since it is an important existential tool for the survival of Israel

Moreover, as long as there is oil in YPG-held areas, there will be more incentive for Trump/Harris to remain in Syria; couple it with the fact that this means that Russia will take Syria if US leaves which wouldn't please the US
Trump is expected to cease support for YPG/PKK.


Page 218 second paragraph

This is the bible of conservatives. Of course in reality it might not be that easy. The Pentagon and CIA will %100 oppose to this idea.

Page 218 second paragraph

This is the bible of conservatives. Of course in reality it might not be that easy. The Pentagon and CIA will %100 oppose to this idea.
The paragraph in question:

"Second, the next Administration should build on the Trump
Administration’s diplomatic successes by encouraging other Arab states,
including Saudi Arabia, to enter the Abraham Accords. Related policies
should include reversing, as appropriate, the Biden Administration’s
degradation of the long-standing partnership with Saudi Arabia. The
Palestinian Authority should be defunded.
A further key priority is keeping
Türkiye in the Western fold and a NATO ally. This includes a vigorous
outreach to Türkiye to dissuade it from “hedging” toward Russia or China,
which is likely to require a rethinking of U.S. support for YPG/PKK [People’s
Protection Units/Kurdistan Worker’s Party] Kurdish forces, which Ankara
believes are an existential threat to its security.
For the foreseeable future—
and much longer than one new Administration—Middle Eastern oil will
play a key role in the world economy. Therefore, the U.S. must continue
to support its allies and compete with its economic adversaries, including
China. Relations with Saudi Arabia should be strengthened in a way that
seriously curtails Chinese influence in Riyadh."


Notice how they themselves call them YPG/PKK :) .

You are mostly right but let's not forget 1 very important point.

Israel, Republicans are even more pro Israel than Democrats, with the current anti Israel sentiment/policy going on in our country, we may even face harsher conditions than before.

I hope Erdogan stops the popular sentiments for inland politics and start focusing on real geopolitics goals, this is our best chance to finish YPG.

Won't work. Not to mention if he was really serious about it, he would've stopped Azerbaijan's oil going through to Israel. It would've completely destroyed relations but if Palestine matters that much to him...

Erdogan does a buyuk filistin rally hours later record trade is announced with Israel.

The man is a politician only uses whatever if it is to his own benefit which is Islam, Ottoman history, Palestine, Conservatives and Ataturk.

How Erdogan reconciles his hostility to Israel with his friendship with the pro-Israeli Trump is unknown to us. But for him, apparently, it is nothing but complete harmony :)
