אחרי שנים של אוטונומיה - וקרבות: הכוח הכורדי בסוריה מתפרק ומתמזג בצבא

הערכה

The Kurdish military force in northeastern Syria that was a primary U.S. partner against ISIS is dissolving and merging into the Syrian army it was fighting months ago. This is a seismic shift in Syria's power map. The Kurdish autonomous zone established during the civil war is ending, and its commander acknowledges a new phase of peace building. The question now is what happens to Kurdish political autonomy and how the U.S. reacts to losing its main ground ally.
