Erdogan n’a pas aimé la visite de Brett Mc Gurk à Kobané. Ni non plus la jolie photo souvenir qui a émergé sur twitter : ▻http://seenthis.net/messages/456795#message456837
Certes Brett avait fait des efforts pour ne pas mentionner sur les réseaux sociaux le nom ni un insigne du YPG, lorsqu’il a évoqué son voyage à Kobané à la veille des pourparlers de Genève dont le YPG était exclu. Seulement une rencontre avec les SDF, ce qui est très différent comme chacun sait : ▻http://seenthis.net/messages/456490
Erdogan calls on US to choose between Turkey or Syrian Kurds

Istanbul (AFP) - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan expressed anger over a US official’s visit to a Kurdish militia group controlling the Syrian town of Kobane, urging Washington to choose between Turkey and the “terrorists” there.
A delegation including senior US diplomat Brett McGurk, special envoy to an international coalition fighting IS in Syria and Iraq, last week met members of the Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG), a powerful militia that is in control of Kobane.
The meetings come after the YPG’s political wing, the Democratic Union Party (PYD), was excluded from new peace talks in Geneva being organised by the UN. Ankara had threatened to boycott the talks if PYD was invited.
“He visits Kobane at the time of the Geneva talks and is awarded a plaque by a so-called YPG general?” Erdogan told reporters on his plane returning from a trip to Latin America and to Senegal.
