Jonas Sjöstedt discusses the precarious situation of the Kurds in Syria and the potential implications of US support amidst their ongoing struggles with the Syrian regime.
In his analysis, Jonas Sjöstedt reflects on the historical abandonment of the Kurdish forces by their western allies after significant contributions to the fight against ISIS in Syria.
