Kurdi stated that the Syrian government sent signals of retortion to the countries who supported the uprising in Syria before and added, "We believe the Syrian government is behind the terror attacks which took place in Istanbul, Gaziantep and in the other places of Turkey. The strong relations between the PKK and Syrian government have been known for a while. Regime has been planning to cooperate with PKK and wishing to bring out a conflict between the Arabs and Kurds who are living in the northeastern areas of Syria. Time to time there are armed conflicts erupt between sides and it gives a chance to the Assad forces to attack."
Talking about the operations by the FSA, Kurdi said, "Our military operations are going well. FSA has high spirits even though the demand on arms is high. At the moment we are only able to use light arms."
Kurdi stated the circle started to tighten for the Syrian army and said, "FSA has gained many ground in Aleppo and there is no much space left for the Syrian army to move. They are providing their own military equipments with jet planes. It shows us the collapse of the Syrian regime. Victory in Aleppo is going to be achieved soon."
Kurdi also stressed that the international community is responsible for the torture and massacre of civilians in Syria and said, "Russia and China are responsible for the killing of civilians as they are holding UN Security Council back from stopping the bloodshed in Syria. Also these two countries work in cooperation with Iran and they provide heavy arms to the Syrian government."
