Syrian interim president Ahmed Al-Sharara, formerly a leader of high-ranking al-Qaeda, said on Tuesday that the one-day “National Dialogue Summit” that he made his main side will be rebuilt by Syria more than a decade later. He said it was a “historic” opportunity. Brutal civil war and terrorist rebellion.
“I urge all Syrians to unite, hold hands to heal their wounds and wash away the pain after decades of dictatorship,” Sharaa said. I said In his opening speech to a conference held at the Presidential Palace in Damascus.
“Syria is freed in itself and is suitable to build itself on its own. It is an exceptional, historical and rare opportunity that we live today. We are all We must use the moment to serve our people and our nation's interests,” Sharaa said. I said.
Dictator Bashar Assad, a former resident of the Presidential Palace, is I was kicked out Due to the lightning attack in December. Thanks to the weakened and distracted Russian and Syrian patrons of Assad by other wars, the former al-Qaeda franchise, now known as Hayat Taharil al-Sham (HTS), has flapped up nationwide. , managed to grasp control of Damascus and pack Assad. He will be exiled in Russia.
Sharaa, Instructions Al Qaeda's operations in Syria reformed his status as a politician under the alias “Abu Mohammad Al Jolani” before breaking with his old master and as a more gentle Islamic supremacist movement. I've been working to position HTS.
To that end, Sharaa claims he is simply a temporary or transitional leader in Syria after Assad. Latest words From HTS, Syria's “transition period” should last for about four years.
Tuesday's “National Dialogue Summit” is a red carbon dioxide relationship with hundreds of participants, creating a working group to devise the transitional government's judicial system and constitution, releasing government agencies and civil society. Build, codify and resolve personal freedom, and post-war economic planning for Syria.
Although the results of these debates were not made public, the “transition government” is officially coming into power, possibly on March 1st, to unveil Syrian economic and legal system plans.
The membership list for the National Dialogue was also somewhat unclear. HTS representatives did an incredible show where they worked hard to include representatives from many parts of Syria and the whole faction, but when the dust settled, the three very important minorities were It was frozen from the comprehensive transitional government plan: the Alawians, Kurds, and Kurds, and Druze.
Alawis is a quirky Shia Muslim who was welcomed by the Assad dynasty. Arawys is I'm very nervous On suffering retaliation under the new government, as they generally supported Assad.
The Kurds were US ally in the war with the Syrian Islamic State, and they have long managed their own autonomous regions. Unfortunately, they are considered a major security threat from nearby turkeys, and Shala Cultivation “Eternal friendship” with the Turks.
Other Syrian factions Respect Autonomous Kurdish regions as a threat to their security resent the excessive impacts the Kurds have on America and Europe thanks to their partnership in the war with ISIS.
Alliance of 35 parties in Kurdish autonomous regions Condemned Sharaa's national dialogue conference as “meaningless” and “valuable” on Tuesday was ruled out as groups like the Kurdish people were excluded.
The Kurdish group said “the real national dialogue conference must be inclusive” to “reflect the reality of the composition of Syrian society.”
Druze is An esoteric religious faction That was recently thought It may be safer to move to Israel and bring in land rather than take the chance at HTS.
The Israelis have long protected the Druze, and the Druze was a strong supporter of Israel during the war with Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists. Many Israeli druzes serve The Israeli Secretary of Defense (IDF) and some of them gave their lives during the Gaza War.
Jerusalem Post Assad's collapse has made Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu bold to expand protections for Jabal Druze, the community closest to Israeli border. Netanyahu explicitly stated that his government “does not tolerate any threats to the Druze community in southern Syria.”
The Druze represents a political challenge for both Israel and the new government in Damascus, as a significant number live in Golan Heights, a Syrian territory annexed by Israel in 1981. Goland Loose initially resisted Israeli citizenship offers. The safety of relatives who live in Syria, but their relationship has been worn out for years, but now many people are heading towards Israel rather than rolling the dice, Sharaa's promise of inclusion.
“As soon as Assad fell, the video was word-of-mouthed on social media in Syrian Druze in support of joining Israel. This is not about affinity for Israel, but about fear. It was. Jerusalem Post It's attracting attention.
HTS Junta was not satisfied with Netanyahu's declaration. statement release After a national dialogue meeting on Tuesday, he condemned “Israel's invasion of Syrian territory as a blatant violation of Syrian sovereignty,” and “vowed to stand firm against those who want to tamper with our security and unity.”
Some druzes also said that Netanyahu felt that he had gone too far and prefers to maintain “part of Syria” rather than living under “Israel occupation.”
Critics of Tuesday's event in Damascus saw it as nothing more than a theatrical performance. Convinced Foreign governments, whose heavy sanctions against the brutal Assad regime were levelled, are now able to be lifted. HTS Junta Foreign Minister Assad al-Shibani on Tuesday condemned these sanctions as “a means of pressure on the will of the Syrian people.”
Assad may have disappeared, but no Western leader has first lifted sanctions on al-Qaeda derivatives that may not fulfill Syria's security and justice promises. Meanwhile, reconstruction of war-torn Syria becomes extremely difficult if severe sanctions are in place.
