Turkey agreed to a five-day cease-fire in its Syria Assault - by Jace Jeremiah

Turkey agreed to a five-day cease-fire in its Syria assault


A Turkish military truck carries tanks from Northern Syria for a military operation in Kurdish areas in Akcakale district in Sanliurfa, Turkey, on October 17, 2019.
Summary:The five days cease-fire was as US negotiation that allowed Kurdish forces to withdraw from the Turkey-Syria border and end the conflict.  the US wants to get the turkey region to cease fire and restore the peace and stability of the region. Trump then got on his twitter to brag about the deal and that he saved turkey region from total war.  trump had a initial decision to withdraw the us military and let the turkish attack the kurds. this five day cease-fire didn't repair the damage that has already was produced by trump. there is a lot of criticism for this cease fire because it is basically kicking the kurdish out of the area and they are getting replaced with the turkish.  the kurdish are have to move to syria because there are no longer a 20 mile safe zone between the countries.

question:
1.do you believe the Trump and pence did the right thing in turkey region?

2.what are other conflicts you can think of that come from the cease-fire?

  1. The Kurtish don't have enough military power to help themselves, them being able to withdraw potentially prevented a war.
