Le Monde: Syria: Turkey wants to extend its buffer zone by pushing back Kurdish forces
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has capitalized on the regime change in Damascus to advance his agenda in northeastern Syria. The Turkish-backed Syrian National Army (SNA) has successfully driven Kurdish forces from key towns such as Tal Rifaat and Manbij, with ongoing airstrikes threatening further Kurdish positions.
The SNA's aggressive tactics have led to mass civilian displacement, contrasting with the more restrained approach of other rebel groups. Erdogan's strategy aims to create a buffer zone along the Turkish-Syrian border, pushing Kurdish forces further away, which aligns with his long-term territorial ambitions.
