Syria's defence minister said Wednesday that Damascus was open to talks with Kurdish-led forces on their integration into the national army but stood ready to use force should negotiations fail."The door to negotiation with the (Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces) is currently open," Murhaf Abu Qasra told reporters."If we have to use force, we will be ready."

“They offered us oil, but we don’t want oil, we want the institutions and the borders,” Abu Qasra said.

I was hoping it wouldn’t come to that. They clearly don’t like Rojava’s federated power, and want it centralized under them. Unfortunately I don’t for see a good outcome here.

    If they like their national borders so much they should maybe start with kicking out the Turkish occupying forces 🙄
