ANALYSIS - Consequences of regime attack in IdlibBy M. Seyfettin Erol

ISTANBUL (AA) - The Idlib issue is, once again, on the agenda. The Assad regime attacked reinforcement Turkish Armed Forces (TAF) elements sent to the region to prevent armed conflict, martyring seven soldiers and one civilian and injuring 13 others, raising tensions in the region. Turkey’s response certainly has and will not be limited to Syria, as the message sent to Turkey through Idlib is not limited to Syria alone. Thus, the regime attack seems to have triggered the beginning of a process that will result in major shifts in Turkish foreign policy and global/regional-scale geopolitics.
