Are the Astana trio, Russia, Turkey and Iran, close to resolving the Syrian conflict?
the presidents of Russia, Iran and Turkey once again came together in Ankara on Monday to address the Syrian conflict and its far-reaching consequences.
Washington’s inaction against the Assad regime and support of the YPG against the wishes of its NATO ally Turkey became one of the main grounds for Ankara to begin engagement with Moscow and Tehran. The trio appears to have reached a political consensus on the future of northeastern Syria, which has been held by the YPG-dominated SDF since 2012, exploiting the security vacuum left by years of civil war.
"The PKK, and its extension the YPG/PYD, is the biggest threat to Syria's future. As long as the PKK/PYD presence in the country continues, neither Syria nor our region can find peace," Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said. But mere joint patrolling won't address Turkey’s security concerns. Erdogan recently indicated that Ankara was weighing up the option of conducting another cross-border operation in northern Syria.
On the eve of a bloody Assad assault on the province, where nearly four million people live, in 2017, Erdogan brokered a crucial ceasefire with Putin, leading the formation of de-escalation zones in the province to prevent civilian casualties.
