The signing date had been agreed upon in advance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read also: <a href=\"https:\/\/963media.com\/en\/14\/03\/2025\/sdf-syria\/#\">Syria Moves Toward Stability: Al-Sharaa Agreement with Abdi and the Path Forward<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><b>How do you see U.S. policy changes, especially with Donald Trump\u2019s return, affecting support for the Autonomous Administration? What are your strategies if the U.S. withdraws from northern and eastern Syria?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">U.S. policy toward Syria remains uncertain, which presents ongoing challenges. Despite Trump\u2019s return, Washington\u2019s current approach largely continues the previous administration\u2019s policies. So far, the U.S. remains committed to fighting ISIS, and there has been no official discussion of a military withdrawal. However, American forces will not stay indefinitely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The priority should be a comprehensive political solution for Syria\u2014one that establishes an elected government representing all communities, ensures stability through transitional justice, and strengthens democracy. The U.S. presence has helped maintain regional stability and prevent the resurgence of extremist groups. If Washington decides to withdraw, the process should be carefully planned and gradual to avoid chaos. A sudden power vacuum, as seen in Afghanistan, could trigger new instability.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Are you concerned about Trump&#8217;s close ties with Russia?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">U.S. support for the SDF is not linked to any agreements with Russia. The decline of Russia\u2019s influence in Syria following Assad\u2019s weakening has allowed other regional players, particularly Turkey, to expand their presence. At the same time, we have seen ISIS regain activity, alongside the growing influence of radical groups seeking to impose their ideology. These developments make the situation even more complex and pose serious risks for Syria\u2019s future.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read also: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/963media.com\/en\/15\/03\/2025\/u-s-led-coalition-and-sdf-conduct-joint-military-drills-in-eastern-syria\/#\">U.S.-Led Coalition and SDF Conduct Joint Military Drills in Eastern Syria<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>How do you respond to Turkish pressure?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We believe that progress in Turkey\u2019s internal peace process would positively impact Syria. The U.S. has pressured Turkey to halt its military operations in northern and eastern Syria, but so far, these efforts have only led to temporary solutions rather than a lasting peace.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are opportunities for Turkey to play a truly strategic role in the future, if it chooses to seize them by improving its relationship with the Kurdish people, addressing the Kurdish issue, and advancing democracy within its borders. We do not see Turkey as an enemy, but we have legitimate concerns about its aggressive policies toward us.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Do you see a future where the Foreign Relations Department of the Autonomous Administration is no longer needed? Would you consider a role in Syria\u2019s future government or step away from politics?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I will make that decision when the time comes. However, when Syria achieves lasting stability, when displaced people can return home safely, and when true security is restored, I plan to dedicate myself fully to my core cause: <\/span><b>women\u2019s rights<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. My focus will be on working alongside women to achieve gender equality and ensure they have full access to their rights.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What is the Autonomous Administration\u2019s stance on recent events in Syria\u2019s coastal region?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These actions violate fundamental human rights. Holding former regime officials accountable is necessary, but targeting civilians, restricting their freedoms, and turning the conflict into a sectarian struggle are extremely dangerous.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have seen a rise in inflammatory rhetoric targeting specific communities, Alawites, Druze, Kurds, and Christians. Some media platforms have become enablers of this division, openly hosting figures who spread hate speech. This not only fuels further violence but also places responsibility on the Damascus government to put an end to these campaigns.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exclusive
