Russian, Turkish, and Iranian foreign ministers celebrating after US surrender

KSA and Iran are regional power players. The Kurds are not.
+ the Kurds have the problem of being a minority across more then 1 state.

All justice would give them a state -they certainly deserve one. But Erdogan will never let it happen

You probably said the same thing about 'Iraqi Kurdistan'.

"Iraqi Kurdistan in Turkey’s Foreign Policy"

"Turkish authorities usually approach the topic of Iraqi Kurdistan with caution, stemming from worries that any independence movement may spread to Turkish territory, with its 15 million Kurds. However, the Justice and Development Party (AKP)—which has ruled Turkey since 2002—has adopted a flexible approach towards the Kurdish question, and that has enabled a turnaround in relations between Turkey and the KRG. Since 2008, their relationship has developed quickly, especially visible in their economies. Between 2009 and 2013, the number of Turkish companies in the north of Iraq mushroomed quickly (from around 500 to 1,500). Turkish exports to the territory grew—in 2013, Iraqi Kurdistan became Turkey’s third-largest export market when viewed separately (67% of Turkey’s total exports to Iraq). According to the Turkish Ministry of Customs and Trade, Iraq is Turkey’s second-largest export market ($7.5 billion in 2016), and most Turkish goods flow to Iraqi Kurdistan. At the same time, Turkey is the KRG’s biggest economic partner."

I admire your passion for the Kurds. It's a noble endeavor.
It's always good to look into a particular in the ME -it gives one a better depth of understand of the players/currents. May the Kurds get their state
