Syria-Lebanon-Iran
US continues to supply Kurds with arms, provoking Turkey -- Russian FM
2018-02-16
[ALMASDARNEWS] Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has commented on the developments in Syria, including the issue of arms supplies to Kurds from the US and the American military presence in al-Tanf.

"The Americans have sent the Kurds convoys with weapons through the territory of Iraq, provoking The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund....
. Turkey, in turn, has continued its military activity against Kurds in the Afrin area in northwestern Syria as part of the Operation Olive Branch," Zakharova said at a briefing on Thursday, noting that the ongoing battles between Ottoman Turkish troops and Kurds were fierce.

Meanwhile,
...back at the mall, Clarissa suddenly spied Mr. Bartlett at the checkout counter. He was buying Grecian Formula!...
 in Leb, the US Secretary of State, who is expected to head to Ankara, addressed the issue after meeting with the Lebanese president, stressing that the US has "never given heavy arms to the YPG," (the People’s Protection Units) a Kurdish Lion of Islam group that Ankara has deemed to be a terrorist organization.

The Ottoman Turkish officials have repeatedly claimed that the arming of the Syrian Kurds is one of the major factors that have contributed to the deterioration of Ankara-Washington relations. Turkey has claimed that the US was making a mistake in supplying weapons to the YPG. Ottoman Turkish officials say the YPG is linked to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which is designated as a terrorist organization in the country, and claims that the American weapons they received could be directed against Turkey.
