Syria's New Leadership Reaches Landmark Agreement with Kurdish Forces

The deal integrates Kurdish-led SDF into national institutions, marking a significant step toward uniting the war-torn country.

  • The Syrian transitional government and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) have agreed to fully integrate the SDF's civilian and military institutions into the national government.
  • The agreement guarantees full citizenship rights for the Kurdish community and emphasizes political inclusion for all ethnic and religious groups in Syria.
  • The deal grants the transitional government control over key infrastructure in northeastern Syria, including border crossings, airports, and oil and gas fields.
  • This development follows intense violence in Syria's western coastal region, where over 1,500 people, mostly civilians, were killed in clashes involving Assad loyalists and the new leadership.
  • Observers view the agreement as a potential turning point for Syria's stability, though its implementation by the end of the year remains a critical challenge.
