The Iraqi Kurds are also seeking to establish a state of their own.
The area where Turkey is conducting its military operation in Syria is a piece of territory, around 90 km in width, which separates two of the Kurdish cantons on the eastern part of the Euphrates River from the Afrin canton in northwestern Syria.
Turkey's military offensive can not be said to have achieved its goal without capturing Manbij, Dilek said, adding he no longer expects the Turkish forces to target Manbij.
The town of Manbij lies about 30 km to the west of the Euphrates River and is strategically important to unite the Kurdish cantons.
Turkey should start preparing for a bigger war after clinching victory in al-Bab and handing it over to the Free Syrian Army at the earliest, as it will be faced with a mounting threat of Kurdish separatism at home, cautioned Pekin.
