PYD-linked groups to join forces in Syria: YPG spokesman
2015-10-14
[AA.TR] Groups linked to the Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD), the terrorist PKK organization's affiliate in Syria, have joined forces under the name of the "Syrian Democratic Forces", according to a front man for the YPG, the PYD's armed wing.

On Monday, YPG front man Polat Can announced on his Twitter account that the Syrian Arab Coalition (which includes the Jaish al-Thuwwar, the Burkan al-Firat Operations Center, the Al-Sanadid Forces and the Brigade Groups of Al-Jazeera), along with the Assyrian Military Council, the YPG and the YPJ (the YPG's female wing), would all join forces under the name of the "Syrian Democratic Forces".

"Due to the accelerated conditions in both the political and the military [spheres] and the sensitive phases our country has gone through, there must be an establishment of a unified national military force to all Syrians, consisting of Kurds, Arabs, Assyrians and all others living in the geographical locations of Syria," Can tweeted.

"The Syrian Democratic Force is to launch a self-governing Syria," he added. "Relishing under the shadow of this force is the Syrian people, who would be willing to live in freedom, impartiality and dignity with inclusiveness to all for obtaining their legitimate rights."
