He also said that the only threat to the unity of the Kurds is a rivalry between the PKK and KDP over seizing control in Syrian Kurdistan.
"Massoud Barzani needs to benefit from past experiences and plan for the future. If he competes with the PKK due to pressure from Turkey or a goal of seizing power quickly in Syrian Kurdistan, then Kurds in general and the KDP in particular will be harmed."
Regarding Syrian Kurdistan's chances of seizing similar opportunities to those of the Iraqi Kurdistan region, Botan said, "The Muslim Brotherhood in Syria is the only party that can seize power after the collapse of Assad, but Israel, the U.S. and Europe are very worried about the Muslim Brotherhood of Syria and believe that they are different than the Muslim Brotherhood groups of Egypt and Tunisia.”
“The world needs a player in Syria that could rival the Sunnis in Syria. The Alawites cannot play this role. Therefore, the Kurds in Syria will become an important partner in the new Syrian state," he added.
