I was wondering if anyone had some ML perspectives on the situation in Syria. I recently learned about Rojava, and I was wondering about the background of the conflict between the Assad government and the AANES, afaik they both have marxist roots and so I wanted to learn about the contradictions and reasons for the combat.

    Well Rojava invited US forces and allowed them to occupy Syria’s biggest oil fields in eastern Deir Ezzor province. I’d rather support Assad and his government.

      Given what the other commentor added, I definitely think the support of Syria should be critical, and limited to their anti-imperialist actions. Suppressing the self determination of Kurds should not be supported
