Kurdish-led SDF operating as part of US, Israeli ‘schemes’: Syrian gov't to UN
The marriage of convenience appears no longer convenient. Perhaps this is why Russia announced the war was done.
[Rudaw] Syria's foreign ministry claimed in a letter to the UN late on Sunday that the Kurdish-led, multi-ethnic Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) are operating in northeast Syria as per US and Israel "schemes," and threatened to take back "every inch" of territory from what it called a "terrorist" militia group.

The ministry claimed the SDF is committing "terrorist and criminal exercises" against Syrian people in Hasakah, Raqqa, Deir ez-Zor and Aleppo with the military, financial and political support of the US in a letter to the Secretary-General of the United Nations
...the Oyster Bay money pit...
(UN) and the President of the Security Council.

"This runs in line with schemes being implemented by some state agents to the USA and plotted by authorities of the Israeli occupation, neglecting UNSC resolutions that stress illusory sovereignty and territorial unity of Syria and [the] unity of its people," it added.

The ministry also said that the Syrian government is determined to re-take and "reconstruct" these areas.

The SDF is yet to respond to the letter.

Such severe terminology to describe the SDF is uncharacteristic of the Syrian regime, which tends to refer to the Kurdish-led forces using terms like "militia."

However,
the difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits...
the ministry’s letter comes a few days after Fadi al-’Afays, the field commander of a pro-regime militia group, threatened to attack the SDF-controlled Deir ez-Zor, adding "we will not stop until Qamishli and Raqqa," - two areas controlled by the SDF.

In an undated video, the al-Baqir Brigade commander also called on Arab rustics to form forces to fight against "Kurdish leadership," who he said are supported by the US and funded by Israel.

The Kurdish People’s Protection Units (YPG) - which constitutes the backbone of the SDF ‐ has, with the exception of skirmishes in and around Qamishli, enjoyed good relations with the Syrian regime.

The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and Russia-aided victories over Ottoman Turkish-backed opposition groups in parts of northwestern Syria, some government officials have hinted before - and reiterated in Sunday’s letter - that they seek "full control" of the country.

Attempts by Kurdish officials to negotiate with the Assad regime have repeatedly stalled, including talks last summer that led to an agreement to chart a negotiation roadmap.

SDF military commander Mazlum Abdi made a renewed call for talks with the regime in late August, urging Damascus to begin negotiations with the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (NES) which governs SDF-controlled areas.

"We ask Damascus to negotiate with representatives of the Autonomous Administration [of North and East Syria or NES] and the Syrian Democratic Forces," Abdi said in an interview with the SDF-affiliated ANHA news outlet, "on the principle of recognizing democratic self-administrations and recognizing the legitimate rights of the Kurdish people within Syria."

The letter also follows communication between the SDF, US and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey

over the establishment of a safe zone on Ottoman Turkish border with Syria, though Turkey has expressed discontent with its progress.
