WASHINGTON
The United State  does not  support the
establishment of an autonomous Kurdish
entity in northern Syria ,the US special
envoy for the coalition against Islamic
state extremist  said  Tuesday.

Kurdish fighters have made gains  in war
-torn Syria  against the Islamic state IS
group notably in land close to the border
in the north with Turkey-triggering concern
in Ankara  that the Kurds might attempt to
establish their own state in Syria.

We don't support and don't think the Kurds
support in northern Syria,a separate government
entity"said retired general John Allen

It is important that a partner that has ultimately
been enabled to defeat Daesh IS does not
become an occupying  forces Allen told a
Washington think  tank.

Turkey has fought a 31 insurgency in its
southeast by the Kurdistan Workers Party
(PKK) which Ankara claims is closely
linked to the main Syrian Kurdish People's
Protection Units militia,

Allen also admitted that some of Washington's
allies in the war with IS would be unnerved
by Tuesday's nuclear deal between the West
and Iran,
