Confirmed information about withdrawal of ISIS from the largest oilfield in Syria after mining it

The Kurdish movement in Syria are only calling for a federalization of the Syrian Arab Republic, and is not looking for a partition of the country or an independent Syrian Kurdistan. This was said by recently elected co-chairman of the Democratic Union Party (PYD) Shahoz Hassan in an interview with Sputnik Turkiye.

“We are open for a dialogue with the central government. We do not want the partition of Syria, do not harbor plans of separating from the country and do not want to set up an independent Kurdistan. Such rumors are not true,” Hassan stated.

The PYD Chairman furthermore said that he considered the Syrian government’s declaration to be open to negotiations on the matter, as “late in coming”.

In September, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem had declared that “This topic [limited Kurdish autonomy in northern Syria] is open to negotiation and discussion and when we are done eliminating Daesh (ISIS) we can sit with our Kurdish counterparts and reach an understanding on a formula for the future.”

Commenting further on the conflict with ISIS that has been dragging on for six years now, Hassan stressed the importance of the Russian Federation in negotiations for the future.

“We think that Russia’s statements that any talks in Geneva or any other negotiation process are ineffective without Kurdish participation are very important. Russia can facilitate the settlement of the conflict, ensure that Kurds are invited. This could largely contribute to the settlement of the crisis and find a democratic, peaceful and political solution,” he said.

Regarding cooperation and coordination with the United States, Shahoz Hassan said that while there are regular meetings between US representatives and officers of the SDF (Syrian Democratic Forces, an armed alliance that consists mostly out of Kurdish fighters tied to the PYD), the level of coordination and cooperation between the two is far from the level desired by the Kurds.
