I suppose so but the Rovaja ain't gonna be independent at all. Maybe somewhat autonomous but that's probably about it

It will be exactly as independent as Assad desires it to be. Having an semi-autonomous area may be of advantage to him. Or not. The day it isnt anymore, will be the day Rojava is being cancelled.

I wouldn't be so certain. Russia and Iran have no appetite for a northern expedition, and going it alone would hurt. Assad can't even dislodge al-Qaeda from Idlib, attacking his de facto allies makes very little sense.

AANES authorities are against independence, and against union with KRG.

No they aren't. Rojava has made it fairly clear their goal is a united if federalised Syria with greater regional autonomy.

It will have as little or as much independence as Assad can enforce, which is not exactly the same.

Iraqi Kurdistan is already de-facto independent and doing well.

By "doing well" it just means "slightly better than the rest of the country", which is not much. And the Kurdish administration isn't that much more democratic than the rest of the country, either.

Its going well by most accounts. Some dude I know was there not long ago too.

I can also back this. I know an Iraqi girl who used to live there. As per her, its better than most parts. So after knowing Iraq, I assumed that was quite a positive review.

Even a slightly offending word can trigger it. As we saw in 2010.

Bashar al-Assad made the wrong move diplomatically. It should not be an election in time of war. All that is needed for Baathist idiology is social democracy with a multi-party system.

The war is not over, there are ISIS cells and the FSA and YPG terrorist organizations are still active. Their neighbors should now establish diplomacy with Bashar al-Assad, the leader of Syria. Every state that supports terrorism in Syria should apologize to the Syrian people.

How is the YPG terrorist, pray tell? Is protecting your communities from Islamic fundamentalists hellbent on extermination of ethnic and religious minorities terrorist? Is opposing the Turkish invasion terrorist? Is creating one of the most democratic systems in the middle East, for all it's flaws, terrorist? Is fighting for the emancipation of women and girls terrorist?
