2. Sverige och Turkiet är överens om att fortsätta samarbetet enligt avtalet från Madrid, och om att etablera ett nytt säkerhetssamarbete på ministernivå. Detta samarbete, ett så kallat Security Compact, kommer att vara inriktat mot att bekämpa terrorism i olika former. Sverige förbinder sig också att inte erbjuda stöd till organisationerna YPG/PYD och FETO.
Alltså, jag har svårt för den här delen. För det är ju minst sagt lite luddigt, USA och även NATO har ju inte direkt delat Turkiets syn där. Klipper in lite text från en delad presskonferens med Stoltenberg och Turkiets utrikesminister från 2019 som understryker att NATO då inte hade någon lista på terroristorganisationer på det sättet, och att medlemsländer tycker olika...
"QUESTION: My question is to Secretary General Stoltenberg. I would like to ask have . . . how does NATO think about the PYD and YPG and its affiliation with the PKK in the NATO assessment documents. And I would like to ask whether the NATO has ever assessed the PYD and YPG as a terrorist threat to NATO or any of its members? Thank you.
JENS STOLTENBERG [NATO Secretary General]: NATO does not have a public list where we list different organisations as terrorist organisations. Some other national organisations have that kind of list, for instance the UN or . . . and EU, but NATO does not have that kind of public list, where we list terrorist organisations.
We fight terrorism in all its forms and all its manifestations and we do that together in NATO. We do it in the Global Coalition to Defeat the Daesh. NATO, all NATO Allies have been part of the Global Coalition all the way and we have made enormous progress in the fight against Daesh. Daesh is still a threat, Daesh is a common enemy, and therefore we need to make sure that the gains we have made are not jeopardised.
We also have to remember that NATO’s presence in countries like Afghanistan or Iraq is also about fighting terrorism. We strongly believe that the best way of fighting terrorism is to train local forces and that is what we do in Afghanistan and in Iraq. And, again, Turkey is an important part of that. Turkey is one of the lead nations in Afghanistan and we highly appreciate the contributions from Turkey to NATO’s efforts in the fight against terrorism.
When it comes to the situation northern Syria, and also YPG, there is a known fact that there are different views among NATO Allies. NATO is not present on the ground in northern Syria, but we are part of the Global Coalition and we continue to fight terrorism. But we are not on the ground in northern Syria."
