Damascus: Delegation from the National Coordination Body Visits the Kurdish National Council Office

ARK News.. The Kurdish National Council (KNC) in Syria and the National Coordination Body for Democratic Change stressed the importance of engaging constructively with the new phase and standing alongside the new Syrian administration in every positive stance and action, while clearly and transparently identifying shortcomings without ambiguity.

A delegation from the National Coordination Body, comprising Ahmad al-Asrawi, Secretary-General of the Democratic Socialist Union Party in Syria, Ibrahim Awad, Secretary of the party, Nash’at Tua’ima, member of the Political Bureau of the Syrian Communist Party, and Yahya Aziz, Secretary of the National Coordination Body, visited the KNC office in Damascus.

The delegation was received by Ne’mat Dawoud, member of the KNC Presidency Council, Mahabad Tiziani, Head of the Office, and Luqman Oso, Head of the KNC’s Damascus Local Council.

During the meeting, both sides reviewed the current situation in the country one year after the fall of the former regime, exchanged views on recent developments, and reaffirmed the importance of positively engaging with the new phase, supporting the new administration in all constructive actions, and frankly diagnosing shortcomings.

They noted that achievements at the popular and internal levels so far fall short of the aspirations and expectations of Syrians, stressing the need for inclusive dialogue among the administration, components, and political forces, and for deepening and expanding such dialogue in a systematic manner to frame national action in a way that serves genuine change and ensures the participation of all components and political forces in decision-making.

The delegation of the National Coordination Body emphasized the importance of reaching a comprehensive national conference and building a democratic national alliance toward this goal. For its part, the KNC delegation underscored the Council’s role and the necessity of Kurdish participation with their distinct national identity, and of constitutionally safeguarding Kurdish national rights within a Syria defined as a multi-ethnic, multicultural, and multi-religious state governed through a decentralized system.
