The world's well-known magazine The Economist, in a special issue in 2020, has made an assessment for Turkey.
 
Magazine, argued that Turkey's entering to Syria's Kurdish regions, to sour relations with the US.
 
Undoubtedly, this assessment is accurate and should be considered.
 
However, the only issue souring relations between the two countries is not only the Turkey's entering into the Kurdish region of Syria.
 
There are many more issues that grate relationships.
 
Having entered the Kurdish region of Syria, will sour the relations with the USA, as of the US' links with terrorist organization PKK overseas extensions to sour relations with Turkey.
 
The Turkish side is constantly trying to maintain relations with the United States as before, defining the dispute issues as minor issues. But it is not possible to say that the USA shows the same sensitivity.
 
In the name of controlling the oil fields in the region, the US does not deny that it is in contact with the PKK's overseas extensions.
 
They feel uncomfortable with the Turks entering the region, but it is not known by everyone that Turkey has no eye on the region's oil. Turkey's trouble from the terrorist incidents which have become a nuisance for many years to be able to stop the terror acts. US feels discomfort due to Turkey's entering in the Kurdish region of Syria as well as it doesn't stop the terror acts.
 
Their, "We ensure the security of the oil zone" by givin arms to them, is used against Turkey by the overseas extensions of their terrorist organizations.
 
The US ignores and closes its eyes on this fact.
 
And the relations between the two countries naturally start to sour.
 
If the US insensitivity continues, we fear that sour relations will turn into stinking relations.
 
It is unlikely that relations between the two countries will improve in the near future.
 
Where can we go with sour or stinking relations?
 
I think both countries will have to work to establish new relations for themselves.
 
It would be impossible to maintain uncharacteristic self-sacrificing and souring or stinking relations.
