The best case is that northern parts of Syria end up like Iraqi Kurdistan, where they will de facto control a slice of the country.
However, Turkey to the north is really not keen on the Kurds having any territory, so they'll do whatever they can to frustrate this.
- AngaraliTurk 2y agoThe Iraqi Kurdistan (KRG) you mention has friendly relations with Turkey.
- teractiveodular 2y agoThe main Syrian Kurdish militia has very unfriendly relations with Turkey. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People%27s_Defense_Units https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People%27s_Defense_Units

It's not true that Turkey is not keen on the Kurds having any territory because their friendly relations with KRG is a counter example.

Could it work that if the Kurds have their own 'official' region (either country, or province with-in another country) Turkey (Türkiye) would simply throw money at people to move to it? If there aren't any Kurds living with Turkey's borders, would that be a win for Turkey?
