Russia and Turkey strike a deal to remove Kurdish YPG fighters from Syria border
U.S. Vice President Mike Pence voiced support for the establishment of the safe zone.
“It’s full of holes,” he told a congressional hearing. “All I know it will stop the Turks from moving forward. Whether the Russians will ever live up to their commitment, which is very vague, to ... get the YPG out of their areas, I don’t know.”After six hours of talks with Erdogan in Sochi, Putin expressed satisfaction at decisions he described as “very important, if not momentous, to resolve what is a pretty tense situation which has developed on the Syrian-Turkish border”.
Last week’s U.S.-brokered deal was limited to the central part of the border strip between the Syrian towns of Tel Abyad and Ras al Ain, where Turkish forces had focused their military offensive. Pence received a letter from Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces commander Mazloum Kobani on Tuesday saying their forces had withdrawn “from the relevant area of operations” under that deal, Pence’s spokeswoman Katie Waldman said.
Syrian and Russian forces have already entered two border cities, Manbij and Kobani, which lie within Turkey’s planned “safe zone” but to the west of Turkey’s military operations.
