MSDOn Thursday, March 3rd, “The Presidential Council” of the Syrian Democratic Council held its periodic meeting in the city of Al-Hasakah in northeastern Syria to discuss international and regional developments and their impacts on the Syrian crisis.
The meeting members reviewed a comprehensive political briefing by the Executive Body which shed light on developments in the world and the challenges facing the region politically, economically and security.
On recent developments in Europe and the Russian-Ukrainian war, the meeting members considered that dialogue and negotiation are the safest method to maintain the international peace and security, and that military options have proven their failure to resolve international and domestic conflicts and crises.
The meeting members discussed the latest developments on the path of the settlement in Syria, the efforts made to resolve the crisis, and the impacts of the war in Ukraine on the Syrian situation which nears the twelfth year since the start of the Syrian Revolution in 2011.
The meeting members agreed on the need to preserve the national constants and the rightful demands of the Syrian people who called for them in 2011, and to achieve a democratic change and end the system of tyranny.
The meeting members discussed the decline of the living reality in the different Syrian regions and the economic decline, where the Syrian people suffer from it along the Syrian territories, in which the council renewed the demand of the Syrian parties to reject disputes, call for the principles of the real Syrian Revolution and achieve the aspirations of the Syrian people in a decentralized democratic Syria that respects pluralism and diversity.
The members of the Presidential Council including parties, political and social blocs and civil society actors presented opinions and proposals on the political process and the path led by “SDC” and called for the intensification of meetings with Syrian Democratic figures and forces and the culmination of this path by achieving consensuses among the Syrian forces and elites to end the fragmentation and subordination of the opposition at the present time.
On the organizational side, the meeting members discussed the reports and papers received from bureaus and representatives of the “SDC” inside and outside the country, and the meeting members elaborated methods to develop the organizational work and emphasize the identity of the council as a framework and an alliance of Syrian forces fighting for a unified Syria through the national project led by it as a role model for the Syrian situation.
