The recent Turkish attacks on Kobani followed a meeting between the leaders of Russia, Turkey, Germany, and France. According to Xelil, there is no positive attitude expected from superpowers.

[...] “There is a fact that we should remember and realize all the time: our revolution will carry on through our hands, not through others, and if we wait for others, we will not achieve any victory,” he said.

If those powers had taken any positive stance and signed any agreements with Turkey to find a solution, Turkey would not dare to wage its recent attacks.”

Xelil said Turkey had gained some support or green light from the meeting with Russia, France, and Germany, or maybe that Turkey found the attitude of those powers is weak in that all points on the agenda were linked to their interests only.

“If there were any element in their agenda in favor of finding a solution in Syria, Turkey would not dare to launch the attacks,” he said.

If Turkish attacks continue, Xelil said, the solution would not be to use military force only. Instead, he said all nations who are involved in the resistance would take part to find a solution, including in diplomatic, political, financial, and even cultural aspects.

“When we say the [People’s Protection Units] YPG will resist, we are talking about the military aspect only, and this is not balanced at all because the other side has much more military force,” he said.

Xelil noted that the gap should be filled, meaning that people in north Syria should prepare for resistance, especially regarding the media and raising the region’s voice to influence the world public opinion.

“We have never attacked anybody, but we should be ready for any attack against us,” he said.

“We should realize the fact that defending ourselves is a right for anybody, but if our people just watch and wait for others to protect them and build a home for them, nothing will happen.”

Xelil said the US presence in Syria has been in two phases: one to defeat IS, and the other post-IS. He urged the US administration to make their plan and policy clear on whether they are staying in Syria or leaving it for Russia and Iran."
