One thing that should not surprise anyone in regards to Turkey's policy in northern Syria is the future operations of Turkey against YPG and Daesh targets in the region without any discrimination

Use of groups such as Hashid Shaabi, who will only instigate sectarianism, or the PKK and other terror organizations connected to it, will only bring greater bloodshed and create opportunities for Daesh to reinvent itself in new forms

The issues of Syria, the YPG, and the Gulen case will be the most challenging disagreements to resolve for the new administration in its relations with Turkey.

Focus mustly not on the ideological, but the practical benefits of keeping Washington on the agenda

At this critical juncture, instead of debating who needs whom more, the next administration should focus on how to reclaim the strategic partnership and working relationship with an important ally

Operation Euphrates Shield has mobilized the Syria equation again and accelerated the political process. It also came to light that the quelling of the July 15 coup attempt intensified Turkey's counter-terror activities both in Syria and Northern Iraq

U.S. presidential candidates should note what was discussed in the meeting between Turkish and U.S. leaders at the G20 summit. They may soon desire better relations with Turkey

U.S. President Barack Obama once said during an interview that he resented President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan because he did not employ his great army to fight DAESH.

Having launched operation Euphrates Shield on Aug. 24, Turkey not only helped the Free Syrian Army (FSA) liberate Jarablus but also became directly involved in the Syrian civil war.

Constitutively, the “Euphrates Shield” operation had two phases. The first phase aimed to liberate several villages and areas in the west and south of Jarabulus in order to be able to lay siege to the city. In the second phase, an offensive attack enabled the entrance of the aforementioned forces to the city center.

The YPG's attacking two Turkish tanks that fight against DAESH in south Jarablus is a declaration of war on Turkey

The increasing intensity of terrorist attacks on Turkish soil by both DAESH and PKK operatives demonstrate that Turkey's entrance in Syria will create shockwaves by the illicit structures on the ground.

The frequency of these attacks shows the determination of these groups to terrorize the Turkish people and destabilize the country.

Biden's visit can bring many good things and opportunities for bilateral relations if the U.S. can show support for Turkey and Turkish people. It is an era that will stay in the memories of the people for many years.

After the failure of the coup attempt, it was revealed that the coup makers already had a list of people that they planned to assassinate or execute.

It is important to develop a comprehensive strategy against the terrorist group that involves multiple dimensions to stop its recruitment, finance and outreach and defeat it militarily
