We regularly discuss developments in Syria with the Turkish government, including
on the status of the Democratic Union Party (PYD). The Turkish government regard PYD
as an affiliate of the proscribed terrorist organisation, the Kurdistan Workers’ Party
(PKK). Turkey has been clear with the PYD that they need to demonstrate that they
are part of the moderate opposition and continue to urge them to co-operate with the
National Coalition as the legitimate representative of the Syrian people.
