Turkey to suspend Syria offensive.

Turkey has agreed to a ceasefire in northern Syria to let Kurdish-led forces withdraw,US Vice-President Mike Pence has announced.All military operations will be paused for five days,and the US will help facilitate an "orderly withdrawal" of Kurdish-led troops from what Turkey has termed a "safe zone" on the border.

Turkey launched its assault last week.It aimed to repel a Kurdish militia that it views as a terrorist group, and resettle refugees in the area.Critics fear this could lead to ethnic cleansing of the local Kurdish population.The cross-border offensive came after US President Donald Trump pulled US forces out of the border region.His decision prompted a raft of criticism at home and abroad, with some accusing him of giving Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan a "green light" for the operation.Mr Trump tweeted about the ceasefire before Mr Pence announced it,writing that "millions of lives will be saved!"

So the Kurds are withdrawing but the Turks are not,leaving a huge chunk of Syrian land and oil under turkish control,i wonder where the US is planning on resettling these people,one would guess totally in Syria...(between the Turk and the Syrian forces with themselves as a police force while Turkey resettles Northern Syria with Daesh scum families).
