The answer in short: I tell the Syrian People the destiny of Syria is in your hands, not in anybody else hands but i can abbreviate all of this explanation in one sentence: We are advancing forward, the situation practically is better, but the military settlement, this needs some time. Do we go backwards because of the ignorance of some Turkish officials? We look at the relationwith the Turkish people especially that they stood beside us practically during the crisis, they weren't drifted in spite of media and monetary flooding... First, I believe talking about Buffer Zones does not practically exist. Secondly, unrealistic even for those countries which are conducting a hostile or opponent role In fact Syria does not need a green light in matters of sovereignty, local & national issues not from its friends nor from its enemies, norfrom its oppenents. This wide base of the people is the one protecting the country. from this people, the most important category that let this country steadfast, no doubt it's the Armed Forces.
