Here's the Kremlin transcript of Putin's press conference with Erdogan yesterday, in English.
http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/54444#
Russia stated that they together with Iran and Turkey will setup four "safe zones" and be the guarantors of the agreement for the four zones..to be presented at the ongoing Astana talks....
What's new is that there's a 3-page memorandum circulating in Astana with a May 22 deadline for establishing the zones' exact borders.

IF this is anywhere close to being accurate/confirmed the US (Trump), CENTCOM and US SOF are now involved in one hell of a total mess.....
PYD (PKK) signed an agreement to cooperate with the Regime and Russia for upcoming offensives in Aleppo and Idlib.

So Trump, CENTCOM and US SOF are in fact supporting Assad in genocide, ethnic cleansing, fighting together with sectarian Iraqi Shia militias and the Iranian IRGC along with support of a Communist terrorist group PKK....
Can it get any worse???

To date…
- Russia has less of a free hand in Syria and less prestige in the Middle East than it did under the previous administration
- There is no evidence that Operation Timber Sycamore has been wound down
- There have been no efforts to rein in Turkey’s Operation Euphrates Shield or its attacks on the YPG
- There appears to be no micro-management of the military by the administration
- Washington appears to have warmer relations with Ankara and Riyadh
- Clashes between the FSA and YPG have been reduced
None of these developments indicate an attempt to placate Russia, dismantle NATO or other alliances, or to retreat from MENA.
