Security zone on Turkish southern border to benefit Syria, says Putin
I've been following this most recent interaction between Russia and Turkey.
It seemed there had to be more to some of the statements issued from that meeting then had been initially reported in the above post. Specifically this statement:
"He (Putin) sympathised with Turkey, saying: "We understand Turkey's concern regarding the security of its southern border. We believe that these are legitimate interests."Contrary to where the earlier articles had led the reader, Idlib, the entire statement appears to take the reader in an entirely different direction, geographically speaking. Is this a reference to the security zone in eastern Syria? :

Putin and Erdogan |
Creation of a security zone on the Turkish-Syrian border will help to maintain Syria’s territorial integrity, Russian President Vladimir Putin said during a press conference on the outcomes of the talks with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Putin noted that Turkey is under considerable strain, having received over 3 mln Syrian refugees
"We understand Turkey’s concern related to ensuring the security of its southern borders, and we think that these are lawful interests of the Republic of Turkey," Putin said.
"To our mind, the creation of a security zone on the southern border of the Republic of Turkey will serve as a good precondition for maintaining territorial integrity of Syria itself," the Russian president stressedThoughts?
Recalling a Jerusalem Post oped featured here
" the end of the conflict may come at a price of fighting in eastern Syria for land that will merely be turned over to the Damascus in the long term."
Keeping in mind that Kurdish outlets were calling for Turkey to be "punished" by NATO.
