in the battle against eisel in syria but turkey is a heavily opposed to the group which is fighting for more kurdish autonomy of some of the edge of it is following the story from istanbul. when it comes to fruition this deal would not be a surprise because kurdish fighters the people whose production units are white b.g. have been in negotiations with the bashar al assad government for a number of days now sources have been telling us that there are sticking points including the man with the conscription of kurdish fighters into the city and the government forces there giving up of heavy weapons by these kurdish fighters and giving up all of their military bases and manipulations go to one of those was some of those points that they were agreeing to as were being asked by the syrian government the details of this agreement have not been made public or clear is yet but goodish try to say that they've asked the syrian government to come in and help them to secure these areas against the turkish advances if invent syrian forces
