Local community maybe, national politics, probably not.
If your country is a member of NATO, i'm pretty sure there are a few countries right this moment, that consider your soldiers on their land as an occupation.
I live in slovenia, and even we have soldiers in places like syria , and I'm pretty sure none of the locals want us there... now we, the occupying force of country X, complain about someone else doing the same to country Y.
- Paradigma11 4y agoWhy would the kurds not want slovenian soldiers on their turf making turkish attacks more improbable?
- ajsnigrutin 4y agoKurds are a minority in syria, and so are the russians in ukraine, and both are happy for being protected by a larger force. But native syrians have had their country basically destroyed by nato (too). So did afghanis, etc., and they're not happy for being occupied (as we saw after the pullout from afghanistan). Considering turkey is a part of nato, it's interesting that we let them attack the kurds without any sanctions... maybe we have to wait until they annex a part of syria to make it "bad".... but in reality, noone will care.
