And is it really caused by the recent terrorist attack in Istanbul, Turkey, which launched a new military operation in northern Syria with air strikes, most likely seeks to implement a long-standing plan to create a 30-kilometer security zone along the entire border
Strikes on northern Syria
On Monday, November 21, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that Ankara would hold consultations on a ground military operation in Syria. The day before, Turkey launched airstrikes on Kurdish areas in this country and Iraq. “This will not be limited to just an air operation. How many ground forces should be involved in thisThe [ground] operation, our respective units, the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff will decide together. We will hold consultations and then take appropriate steps. We have already established diplomatic relations with the countries that are present here, and we have taken and are taking appropriate steps,” the Turkish leader said.
The Turkish operation launched on November 20 was called “Claw-Sword”, its goal is the Kurdish bases, where, according to the Turkish Ministry of Defense, a terrorist attack was being prepared in Istanbul. “Terrorist shelters, bunkers, caves, tunnels and warehouses have been successfully destroyed,” Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said. In total, 89 targets were hit, Ankara claims.
On November 13, an explosion occurred on Istiklal pedestrian street in the center of Istanbul, popular among tourists, as a result of which six people were killed and at least 81 injured, including three Russians.
Turkey blamed the terrorist attack on the group “Kurdistan Workers’ Party”. According to the Turkish police, the attack was carried out by a Syrian citizen who admitted links with the PKK. At least 50 people were detained in the case.
The PKK has stated that it does not intend to “strike directly at civilians”, it denies its involvement in the explosion.
Kurdish armed groups in Syria promised to take retaliatory measures, specifying that Turkish strikes were carried out on the city of Kobani, as well as on other cities on the border of Syria and Turkey. At least 30 people were killed due to massive attacks by Turkish troops on Kurdish areas in northern Syriathe provinces of Aleppo, Raqqa and Hasakah (this is closer to the border with Iraq). Among them are 15 civilians and 15 soldiers of the Syrian army, the Rudaw TV channel broadcasting from Iraq reported, citing the general command of the Syrian Democratic Forces.
On Monday afternoon, the Turkish city of Karkamysh was subjected to a rocket attack. This was reported by CNN Turk with reference to Turkish Interior Minister Suleiman Soylu. “According to preliminary information, three of our citizens were killed, one of them a child, the other a teacher,” he said.
Creating a security corridor for Turkey

Erdogan also said on Monday that Ankara had launched the operation because of Russia’s failure to fulfill its obligations in the region. “Despite our repeated warnings to Russia, which is responsible for clearing northern Iraq and Syria of terrorists in accordance with our Sochi Agreement of 2019, Moscow has not fulfilled and refuses to fulfill its duty,” the Turkish leader said in an interview with the Daily Sabah newspaper.
It is not the first time Erdogan has accused Moscow of non-compliance with the Sochi agreement. Moscow, in turn, also reproached Ankara for violating the agreements.
The agreement in question was reached in October 2019 at a meeting between Vladimir Putin and Erdogan and complemented previously signed agreements between Moscow and Ankara, for example, on the creation of the Idlib de-escalation zone, and related to the situation on the Syrian-Turkish border. It was necessary to conclude it after Turkey launched a military operation in these areas “The Source of Peace”. In addition, the negotiations coincided with the US decision to withdraw its forces from these areas (as a result, the Americans did not leave Syria).
The agreement established a ceasefire and the organization of joint Russian-Turkish military patrols. In addition, Kurdish forces were to be withdrawn along it from the Turkish border. The Russian military police and the Syrian border Service were supposed to facilitate the withdrawal.
Due to Turkey’s decision to launch an operation in northern Syria, the image of the United States is more likely to suffer than Russia, an expert of the Russian Council on International Affairs (INF) notes Kirill Semenov. The Kurds have always been supported by the Americans, he recalls. In 2019, the Kurdish People’s Self-Defense Units agreed to the Sochi agreements, because they counted on the withdrawal of American troops from Syria, says Semenov. “And then Washington overplayed everything, and the Kurds actually refused to fulfill the agreements,” he adds.And since the Kurds are American proxies, this is rather not a question for us. This is Biden’s image loss.
“There are no zones of responsibility in Syria as such,” the expert continues.— Everything is mixed up. Sometimes Americans create bases right next to Russian posts. Taking into account the fact that Moscow is not up to Syrian problems now, the expert admits, Turkey has a chance to implement a long-standing plan to create a 30-kilometer security zone south of the Turkish border. Now this zone is limited to several sections, the largest of which is 120 km long between Tel Abyad and Ras al-Ain.
“We are working on the missing parts of our work to create a 30-kilometer security zone along our southern borders,” Erdogan said this spring.The areas that are the focus of attacks against our country are our priority. As soon as the Turkish Armed Forces and intelligence services complete their preparations, these operations will begin.

In The State Duma has introduced a bill on the list of foreign operations for contractors, a group of State Duma deputies proposed introducing the concept of “counter-terrorism and other operations outside the territory of Russia” into the law on military duty. They believe that the definitions currently available are not suitable for their
A bill has been submitted to the State Duma with amendments to the law “On military duty and military service” with clarifications in which operations abroad citizens who sign a contract for military service for up to one year can participate, TASS reports.
Currently, such a contract can be concluded by conscripted military service or citizens in reserve, if it is a question of a period of emergency, as well as participation in activities to maintain or restore international peace and security or to suppress international terrorist activities outside the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as participation in ship cruises;.
The authors of the bill, the chairmen of the State Duma Committees on Defense Andrey Kartapolov and on security and anti-corruption Vasily Piskarev, decided that it is incorrect to attribute a special military operation in Ukraine to the implementation of the above measures.
They proposed to supplement this list with a mention of “counter-terrorism and other operations outside the territory of Russia”.
This will make it possible to correlate the provisions of the law on military duty with the previously adopted law on ensuring that the armed forces, other troops and bodies conduct counter-terrorism and other operations abroad.
On July 14, 2022, President Vladimir Putin signed the law on special measures for conducting Russian military operations abroad. The law allows the government to temporarily reactivate mobilization capacities and facilities, to disband the material assets of the state reserve, to attract employees of enterprises to work at night, on weekends and holidays.

One of its provisions provides for the addition of the law “On Defense” with Article 26-1, which is called “Ensuring that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, other troops, military formations and bodies conduct counter-terrorism and other operations outside the territory of the Russian Federation”. In the Kremlin to the question whenspecial measures may be involved, they replied that the decision on this is made by the government.
Now the concept of “counter-terrorism and other operations outside the territory of the Russian Federation” has been proposed to be included in the text of the law on military duty.

GNATO Secretary General Stoltenberg: military support of Ukraine is needed for the outcome of the negotiations, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg expressed the opinion that the outcome of the negotiations “depends on changes on the battlefield”
Jens Stoltenberg
NATO should provide military support to Ukraine for the sake of “acceptable” conditions for it in negotiations with Russia, Secretary General of the organization Jens Stoltenberg said during the parliamentary assembly of the alliance in Madrid.
He spoke in favor of ending the conflict at the negotiating table. “But we also know that the outcome of negotiations depends on changes on the battlefield. So if we want a result acceptable to Ukraine, the best way to do this is to provide military support to Ukraine,” he said.
Stoltenberg also announced plans to increase the commitments of alliance members on defense spending. Now the goal is 2% of GDP.
Russia has been conducting a special operation in Ukraine since February. President Vladimir Putin called its goals the protection of the population of Donbass, as well as the demilitarization and denazification of the neighboring state. The United States, the EU and other Western countries have stepped up military assistance to Ukraine after the start of the operation. Moscow has repeatedly criticized them for supplying weapons to Kiev.
Negotiations on a peaceful settlement between Russia and Ukraine have been going on since the end of February and were suspended in May. After referendums in the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporizhia regions, following which they were incorporated into Russia, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky signed a decree refusing to negotiate with Russia while its president is Vladimir Putin.
In November, The Washington Post, citing sources, wrote that the United States called on the leadership of Ukraine to demonstrate openness to negotiations with Russia and move away from the position of complete rejection of them. At the G20 summit, Zelensky announced the conditions of the “formula for peace”, among other things mentioning the need for the withdrawal of Russian troops and the cessation of hostilitiesactions. The Russian Foreign Ministry called Kiev’s demands “unrealistic”, and the Kremlin said that Ukraine “cannot and does not want” to negotiate. “Accordingly, the goals of the Russian Federation will be implemented through the continuation of a special military operation,” Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on November 15.

DMitri Peskov: Russia will find and punish those who shot Russian prisoners in the zone of its own Video, which shows the surrender of the Russian military, and then several dead servicemen are seen, the New York Times called authentic. In Moscow, the Ukrainian authorities were accused of shooting, in Kiev they promised to study the records
Dmitry Peskov
Moscow will find and punish those who shot Russian prisoners of war in the zone of the special operation, Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, RBC correspondent reports.
“Russia itself will be engaged in the search for those who committed this crime. They must be found and punished,” Peskov told reporters.
He stressed that “Russia will do everything possible within the framework of international mechanisms to draw attention to this crime and call to order, to the law, those who may be involved in it.”
Peskov did not rule out that Moscow may appeal to international organizations in connection with the execution of prisoners of war. “If it is recognized that there are some hints of efficiency and hopes for efficiency, then yes. If not, then it will not make sense,” the Kremlin representative noted.
We are talking about the videos that began to spread on social networks on November 18. Presumably, the videos were filmed in the village of Makeyevka, LNR. The footage of the first video shows how people in military uniforms, similar to the Russian one, leave the house one by one and lie down on the ground. They are being watched by men in uniform with yellow armbands – presumably, they are servicemen of the Ukrainian army. The surrendered men are asked which of them is an officer. Then a figure of a man appears from the house from where the surrenders came out, shots are heard on the video, the video ends. The second video, shot presumably from a quadrocopter, shows 12 military bodies.
The American newspaper The New York Times called these videos authentic and published a consistent analysis of the footage of the massacre of prisoners of war. In particular, the medical adviser of the organization “Doctors for Human Rights”, Dr. Rohini Haar, pointed out to the NYT that most of the prisoners of war were probably shot in the head. According to him, killing or wounding a soldier who, “having laid down his arms or no longer having means of protection, surrendered at his discretion, is a violation of the laws of international armed conflict.”

The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights said they were studying the videos. Also, the deputy official representative of the UN Secretary General, Farhan Haq, told RIA Novosti that the organization called on all parties to the conflict to investigate all reports of human rights violations.
The Russian Defense Ministry called the incident a “mass massacre of Ukrainian servicemen over unarmed Russian prisoners of war.” The Defense Ministry accused the APU of “deliberate and methodical murder” with direct shots to the head. The Investigative Committee of Russia has opened a criminal case under the article on the murder of two or more persons committed by a group of persons in connection with their official activities (p. «a », «b » and «w » part 2 of Article 105).
The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova, demanded that international organizations condemn the shooting of Russian prisoners and stated that Moscow had repeatedly drawn the attention of the international community to the “cruel and inhumane attitude of the Ukrainian side to the detained Russian servicemen”. The Russian Commissioner for Human Rights under the President, Tatiana Moskalkova, also addressed international organizations, calling the incident a war crime and a crime against humanity, “which cannot but cause disgust and indignation.”
In Kiev, they said they would study the videos. However, according to the Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine Olga Stefanishina, “it is very unlikely” that the published footage proves Russia’s accusations. “Of course, the Ukrainian authorities will investigate this video,” she said.

«Kommersant: the government will begin awarding heads of state-owned companies in accordance with their KPIs, the Cabinet of Ministers will begin awarding heads of all 117 companies with state participation only after they reach certain KPIs, Kommersant has learned. Such managers will receive an annual bonus in the range of 30-50% of the maximum earnings for the year
The White House has approved a government decree correcting the system of bonuses for the management of state-owned companies, Kommersant reports with reference to the document.
According to the new rules, the amount of remuneration in 117 organizations with state participation will depend on the implementation of individual significant projects and on the achievement of key performance indicators (KPIs).
KPIs (key performance indicators) include, in particular, financial indicators that characterize the profitability of an organization, and industry indicators related to national development goals.
The government took the first step towards unifying the remuneration system for top managers of large state-owned companies in June, the newspaper reminds. At that time, provisions were introduced on the maximum possible total remuneration of the management of companies, which consists of official salary, compensation and incentive payments, as well as payments from participation in the management bodies of other legal entities. The amount of annual remuneration is set depending on the complexity of the organization’s management and its industry affiliation.
Initially, payments of managers, their deputies, chief accountants and members of collegial executive bodies of 43 organizations, including DIA, VEB, Rosatom, Roscosmos, Avtodor, Russian Railways and others, came under state control.
The new amendments of the government, according to “Kommersant”, extend the rules to a wide list of organizations in which the state owns more than 50% of the shares. In the document, organizations are divided into five groups:
Read on RBC Pro Eight simple techniques to neutralize toxic people How to make a financial plan in conditions of uncertainty — algorithm Companies around the world are cutting staff. Who will be fired first “I’m very busy”: how the feeling of constant workload destroys life
the largest companies implementing individual significant projects (VEB, «Dom.RF, Russian Railways, Rosseti, RusHydro and others (12 in total);
a number of key banks and other large organizations (Russian Post, Rosselkhoznadzor, Promsvyazbank and others);
organizations responsible for the development of individual territories (Far East and Arctic Development Corporation, Tourism Corporation.The Russian Federation» and others— nine in total);
organizations responsible for certain areas of the economy (GTLK, USC, «Rosgeologiya»);
the remaining organizations (81 in total).
Proposals on the terms of remuneration and the ceiling of annual payments in these organizations are formed by industry departments and boards of directors of organizations and send them to the Ministry of Finance together with data on the financial result of organizations and subsidies received by them, the publication notes. The Ministry of Finance, in turn, should coordinate them with the working group of the executive committee on optimization and efficiency of budget expenditures.
The resolution also regulates the payment of bonuses that are due to management when they reach the KPI: the annual bonus is within 30% of the annual maximum remuneration, the total amount of quarterly bonuses is not more than 10% of this indicator.
In July, we developed our own KPI for Duma committees. Their effectiveness was proposed to be assessed by the number of initiatives developed and by the results of round tables and appeals.
According to the proposed procedure, the criteria for the effectiveness of the work of the committees are supposed to be divided into three blocks – procedural, semantic and control. The first of them evaluates the fulfillment of those requirements that are in the Duma regulations, there are about 30 of them. Among other things, they relate to the timing of the transfer of documents by committees to the Duma Council, the timing of the distribution of bills received by the committee and the issuance of opinions to other committees.
The second of the blocks of criteria takes into account the number of initiatives submitted by committee members, the number of bills submitted by the committee to the State Duma for consideration, as well as the number of its initiatives that appeared within the framework of the Duma’s scientific expert and research work program. In addition, the criteria include taking into account the number of appeals and conclusions based on the results of the committee’s round tables, parliamentary hearings and working groups, as well as the number of conclusions and appeals of the committee adopted by the Duma.
The third set of criteria is related to the committee’s assessment of already adopted laws. They will be determined by the Duma control committee under the leadership of Oleg Morozov. The results of the committees’ KPIs assessment will be summarized twice a year by the end of the spring and autumn sessions. Now there are 32 committees working in the State Duma.

«Vedomosti”: Volodin proposed to raise the salaries of high-ranking deputies, it is planned to raise salaries for high-ranking deputies at the expense of funds saved by the State Duma. Thus, Volodin wants to increase motivation to “work more”, indicates the source of Vedomosti
Vyacheslav Volodin
The State Duma will increase the salaries of vice-speakers and committee chairmen at the expense of the saved funds after a proposal from the leadership of the lower house of Parliament, Vedomosti writes, citing sources.
As six sources on Okhotny Ryad clarified to the newspaper, this issue was discussed at the State Duma Council on November 14. According to three of them, the issue was raised by the speaker of the lower house Vyacheslav Volodin. “It is unfair that the only person in the State Duma who has a salary that differs from others is himself,” one of the sources of the “Vedomosti” retold the words of the speaker.
Volodin, in particular, pointed out that the State Duma has already saved 600 million rubles, and now there is a legislative opportunity to direct these funds to encourage the work of vice speakers, committee chairmen and, “perhaps, someone else”.
We are talking about the amendment to Part 3 of Article 2 of the law on the status of senator and deputy of the State Duma, which entered into force on July 14, 2022, according to which monthly monetary remuneration, monetary incentives, which make up the salary of a deputy, belong to social guarantees.
According to another source of Vedomosti, Volodin has long been thinking about how to stimulate the work of deputies and, in his opinion, it is fair to raise wages depending on the position. “The idea of providing additional monetary support for those who hold senior positions in the State Duma, vice-speakers and committee chairmen is being discussed. But while there is a discussion about its expediency and how exactly it can be implemented,” he said.
In fact, the source explains, Volodin wants “more motivation to work on the Okhotny Ryad”. Therefore, it is required for the vice-speakers of the State Duma to make a salary like that of deputy prime ministers, and to equate the chairmen of committees with ministers, he added.
