Donald Trump has warned its NATO ally to beware of the devastative wrath of US economic pressure if Turkey dares to attack the Kurdish allies America is leaving behind in its “long overdue” pull-out of troops from Syria.
The Turks are saying they will protect the Kurds and only fight against terrorists no matter what their ethnicity. However, it is known that Turkey bought oil from ISIS and supported terrorists in an effort, led by the West and Gulf State countries, to overthrow the Syrian Government.
The most likely outcome here, if Turkey is not restrained, will be Turkish occupation of Kurdish occupied land in North Eastern Syria. The best way to prevent this from happening is to allow the Syrian Army and Russians come into Kurdish areas and re-establish government control. Trump was right to warn the Turks away from intervening further in the country. The next step is for the US to fully leave the country.
