Kurdish autonomy actual reality, Armenian Cause Office head says

The Syrian conflict will bring about formation of a Kurdish autonomy, Armenian Cause Office head said.

“Kurdish autonomy is already deemed as actual reality both in case of power shift and maintenance of the current authorities,” Kiro Manoyan told a press conference.

In this context, he noted that Turkey is concerned over possible establishment of a new Kurdish autonomy within its borders.

Mr. Manoyan further stressed Syria’s political future, as well as unforeseen “Kurdish spring” as Turkey’s priority concerns.

“Ankara seeks to ‘play first fiddle’ in Syria, with Turkey failing to assume the role during “Arab Spring” in Egypt and Libya,” he said.
