Russia, Iran and Turkey in may 2017 in Astana (now Nur-Sultan) came to an agreement on the establishment of 4 areas of de-escalation in the Syrian Arab Republic. 3 of them in 2018, under the supervision of Damascus. The fourth, located in Idlib and the neighboring provinces of Latakia, Hama and Aleppo, until not occupied by government troops, most of it from captured terrorists " dzhebhat an-Nusra." *
in September 2018 the Russian Federation and Turkey in Sochi signed the agreement on the establishment of a demilitarized zone in Idlib, which houses more than a dozen different groups. The largest of them - Union of Pro-Turkish groups "national liberation front" and "Dzhebhat EN-Nusra" *, only about 30 thousand terrorists.
at the end of January this year, the Syrian army launched an offensive in the West of Aleppo in connection with daily attacks by terrorists residential areas of the city, the result of which took the life of dozens of civilians. 3 days later the army of Bashar al-Assad liberated from terrorists the town of Maaret al Nuuman, which was under the control of the terrorists since 2012 and was one of their biggest strongholds.
amid the escalation in Idlib Ankara and some partners blame Damascus and Moscow in attacks on humanitarian facilities and Turkish military. In Russia and Syria believe that the cause of instability in the region - the actions of terrorists.
As I said, if the situation in Idlib is not normal, Ankara will not remain indifferent and ready to take all necessary steps, up to the use of military force.
