We all know how this is gonna end
The SDF (YPG/PKK) insisted on its demands for integration and integration into the army as a bloc within three years (they had requested a three-year extension of the agreement, which expires on August 30th).
The SDF initially refused to surrender Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor.
Syrian and Turkish officials categorically rejected any postponement.
The government blamed Mazloum Abdi for the agreement's failure before the American and French representatives.
Mazloum Abdi requested a timeframe to meet with Qandil leaders regarding the surrender of Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor, and the government subsequently rejected any such request.
According to local Syrian sources, the US side gave the SDF only two weeks, rather than the three-year period they had requested.
According to the sources, the Hasakah region remains a point of contention, and negotiations on this issue will continue today and tomorrow.
The SDF wouldnt even dare to think to delay any sort of agreements unless some sort of guarantees were provided by both Israel and the US
Moreover, videos emerging from last 4 months already show the PKK building new tunnel and trench systems within Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor; Furthermore, Raqqa is one of the most populous cities within SDF-controlled areas which means loss of access to human resources, taxes, soldiers, in addition to the sole fact that both Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor are close to many oil/gas fields in Syria. Therefore, the notion that that the SDF will abandon such areas is ridiculous
