Les Kurdes appuyés par la Turquie et les États-Unis


La Turquie modifierait-elle sensiblement sa position?

 "Turkey will allow passage for Iraqi Kurdish fighters seeking to reinforce Syrian Kurds battling the Islamic State, the Turkish foreign minister said on Monday, signaling another potential boost for the defenders of embattled Kobane.

Turkey’s announcement followed overnight U.S. airdrops of weapons and ammunition to the Syrian border town, which has faced steady Islamic State attacks for weeks.

The decision by Turkey marks a possible breakthrough in its political calculations over aiding the U.S.-led battles against the Islamic State, a radical al-Qaeda offshoot also known as ISIS or ISIL. A major consideration for Turkey is the interconnection between various factions of Kurds, whose ethnic homeland spreads across Syria, Turkey, Iraq and Iran.
