A senior militant spokesman said that the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) are highly likely to join the Syrian Army after they reached an agreement on taking back the regions they have already lost to the Turkish Army.
"There is no obstacle facing cooperation between the Kurdish militants and the Syrian Army," the Arabic-language service of Russia Today (RT) quoted Spokesman of the Kurdish People's Protection Units Nuri Mahmud as saying.
He noted that the YPG will join the Damascus troops after political agreements are worked out on how to form a joint army.
Mahmud noted that in case the YPG joins the Syrian Army, the occupied regions of Afrin, Jarablus, al-Bab and Idlib will be liberated from the control of the Turkish Army and its allied militants.
He also said recapturing Afrin region is a priority for the Kurdish population.
