* The Turkish President is going to Moscow contrary to his plan a week ago, when he decided to stand with Saudi Arabia in the escalation against Iran, and has retracted of Astana understandings, he has presented the cover for the escalation in Geneva.

* What has happened was not considered by Erdogan, the Kurds refused to leave Manbej, and the Americans did not adhere to get them out of it, while the Syrian army reached to Tedaf. Moreover the Russian endeavors succeeded to reach to an understanding between the Kurds and the Syrian army.

* Erdogan faced strange US position, that does not refuse to hand over the areas controlled by the Kurds to the Syrian army, while refuses the entry of the Turkish army to it.

* Erdogan was obliged to accept giving the villages of Manbej to the Syrian army.

* Erdogan’s trouble is further; he observes the progress of the Syrian army in the north toward Manbej and in the east in Deir Al Zour and in the middle across Palmyra, all of these are necessary outlets for the war of Raqqa, he sees in the handing over of Manbej to the Syrian army an implicit US facilitation to accept their participation in the war of Raqqa.

* Erdogan considers that the American who sold him for the sake of the Kurds in favor of interests will not hesitate to sell him in order to cooperate with the Syrian army for the same reason.

* Erdogan goes humiliated to Moscow to present his cards worried about the US – Syrian cooperation.
