Who is to speak for Kurds at Syria peace talks?
(MENAFN)Russia has been given a list of Kurdish groups; turkey believes would be ready to attend a Syrian peace and reconciliation conference sponsored by Moscow.
The conference was planned this month, at the Black Sea resort of Sochi, but to be postponed because of disagreements on who should attend.
Governors view the role of the People's Protection Units (YPG) and their political wing, the PYD, in different ways; Ankara views the YPG as a branch of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).
"The YPG is not the sole representative of the Kurds. Actually, it represents only a small portion of them," said Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu on Tuesday.
"We are not against our Kurdish brothers, we stand with them. We handed the list of those who represent the Kurds to Russia." He added.
