Nasser Kandil wrote: Turkey and the big failure

Since the beginning of the war on Syria Turkey constitutes the center of this war.
It has been defeated in the war and has failed in achieving the goals by overthrowing Syria. So Turkey was the biggest loser, and it has to search for more modest goals.
Turkey moves reversely it has apologized from Russia and has renormalized the relationships with it; moreover it has restricted its goal with the prevention of forming armed Kurdish line on its borders.
After the battles of Aleppo, Moscow paved the way for Ankara to play a role in the political settlement and transferring the groups affiliated to Turkey to be away from Al-Nusra and to get involved in the solution.
Ankara has manipulated and tried to reset its timing at the American time.
Turkey has lost the opportunity through entering to Al-Bab city, disabling Astana Path, and confronting Iran, and most importantly its neglecting of the Syrian country and its sovereignty.
Syria has surprised Turkey through its surpassing it in Al Bab and reaching the demarcation line with the Kurds, so was the crisis of Manbej to Ankara.
The Americans have slapped the Turks through their sticking to the pivotal Kurdish role.
Turkey announced the end of the Shield of the Euphrates, but it has not achieved its Kurdish goal.
Turkey thought that it exerts pressure on the visit of the US Secretary of State to Ankara to barter the continuation of the role according to its conditions.
The Turks failed and heard the call to coordinate with the Kurds.
