Creating 'Safe Zone' in the north of Syria and Turkey regarding the planned talks ongoing dispute between the United States continues.
İsmail Hakkı Pekin, the former Chief of Staff of the General Staff who made striking statements about the Safe Zone, underlined that the United States should not be trusted.
"We must act in accordance with our national values. If these interests are blown away, then we should say stop to the US! We have to say that. We know what the US intends. It wants to establish a staticle there. In 1991, he founded the Hammer Force in Iraq. When we look at this situation more broadly, the US wants to disintegrate Syria and Iraq in this region in order to ensure the security of Israel. It wants Iran to be isolated," Pekin warned.
Creating northern Syria and Turkey ongoing dispute between the United States takes about Safe Zone planned. While the efforts of Turkish and US soldiers to establish a Joint Operation Center came to an end, it is noteworthy that no further agreement was reached in the talks of Turkish and US delegations on the depth of the Safe Zone. Speaking to our newspaper, former Chief of General Staff Ismail Hakkı Pekin made striking statements about the Safe Zone.
SERIOUS VISION DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TWO PARTIES
"An agreement was reached on three issues; In the middle of Turkey's security concerns will be removed, which PYD southward retreat, it was stated that the establishment of a safe area close to 40 kilometers. This agreement provides the ability to maneuver all three sides. Because the general principles are not clear. Against this, a Joint Operation Center is being established. Here it is important where the observation point will be established. Where will the heavy weapons be withdrawn in Syria? How much depth? Who will control the security zone? How will the airspace be controlled? These questions will be discussed a lot in the coming days. There is uncertainty," he added.
US WANT TO PROTECT ISRAEL'S SECURITY
Pekin, "We know what the intentions of the United States. It wants to establish a staticle there. When we look at this situation more broadly, the US wants to disintegrate Syria and Iraq in this region in order to ensure the security of Israel. It wants Iran to be isolated. The US wants to establish a Kurdistan state there. In 1991, it founded the Hammer Force in Iraq. We also supported this. US does not want to establish a safe zone, wants to establish a buffer zone. The purpose of the buffer zone is preventing us from intervening in that area. The question is, who will rule the people who will remain in the safe zone? Turkey's de facto control of the region to provide a system that is supposed to be. The Arabs in the region need to talk to the tribes. It needs to put them into an equation. It has to talk to Syria. Local people in the region should not look at the PKK. There are thousands against the PKK," he continued.
WE MUST STOP THE USA!
Pekin referring to the ongoing negotiations between the US and Turkey about the Safe Zone, "We should not trust the United States. The last time we learned we wouldn't trust them was in Manbij and the F-35s. Even if we do, we have to implement our own national policy by implementing adequate control audit. We must act in accordance with our national values. If these interests are blown away, then we should say stop to the US! We have to say that. You can't do that, we should say you want to build a state here. Statesmen have to say that. Not only that, it should do the actual movement of it and keep his power there," he said.
