How Erdogan Has Indirectly Favoured ISIS

As Erdogan gears up to bully the Kurds out of their own land and clear off the Northeastern parts of Syria, his role of favoring the ISIS is becoming clearer. Reports have been doing rounds that if Turkey has not stopped them; it has neither done anything to control its movement across its border either. It has been reported on many instances that ISIS have moved across the Syrian Turkish border and gone unchecked.  Strangely, it was Russia which sounded the warning cry against Turkey in the first place. Today, both arch enemies have united forces in Syria and seem to be watching each others’ back against US. Meanwhile, NATO and the EU nations are troubled with the way Erdgoan is becoming an authoritarian dictate. He is flaunting every rule possible and been pushing for a safe zone in Syria to re-home 3 million Syrian refugees. Little is known that the 30 km stretch will give him direct access to Syria’s rich oil reserves. While US had thought it could have got a strong...

Humanitarian Catastrophe Now Hits North Western Syria

It all started as a way to get rid of the Syrian rebel forces. But at the worst receiving end right now, are the thousands of civilians that are running for their lives. Syria has become a mass exodus where UN has reported as many as 100,000 people have fled northwestern Syrian region running to the border. The Russian and Syrian government joint strike is leading to a humanitarian catastrophe, as Maarat al-Numan is being bombed repeatedly. Earlier it was Idlib province from where thousands of Syrians were displaced and moved towards the border into Turkey. The new exodus is creating the same situation and Turkey has made it clear that it has no capacity left to handle such a big exodus of civilians. It is now confirmed that 80,000 Syrians are already on the move towards Turkey. Sadly, this seems to be a political pressure game being played by Moscow to get Ankara to buy its terms, a week before both countries meet over a summit.   While Russia jointed hands with T...
