The main priority of Syria is now the reconstruction of the country and the lifting of international sanctions.
This is what the head of the rebel forces who removed President Bashar Al-Assad from power expressed in an interview for foreign media.
Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, now uses his real name, Ahmed al-Sharaa. Dressed in a suit, white shirt and no tie, Syria's new de facto ruler appeared thoughtful and statesmanlike as he laid out his vision for the country's future.
"Economic sanctions were imposed on the "executioner" of the Syrian people. We Syrians are being punished for the acts of our executioner, who is no longer with us. We seek the help of the international community in prosecuting the criminals of the Assad regime and recovering the money stolen from the Syrians," said Ahmed al-Sharaa, the Leader of Syria.
During the interview, which lasted almost an hour, Sharaa answered questions about the future of the Syrian state, the army, relations with neighboring countries and his expectations from the international community.
"Our classification as a terrorist organization is the result of a political will. We have conducted military operations, we have not targeted civilians. Terrorism is about targeting civilians and we have not done that," Sharaa said, France 24 quotes.
Sharaa called on the international community to give Syria a chance to create its own destiny, as the 13-year civil war drew regional and global powers onto the battlefield in a proxy war that has devastated the country. He also mentioned the latest Israeli intervention in Syrian lands, writes A2 CNN.
"Israel had the alibi to strike in Syria. These militias are no longer there. We do not want conflict with Israel or other countries. Syria will not be used to target other countries. Syrians are tired and should just live in peace," said Ahmed al-Sharaa, the Leader of Syria.
When asked about his governing philosophy amid concerns, particularly among Syria's religious minorities, about pluralism and tolerance, Sharaa succinctly stated that the Syria of tomorrow will be a reflection of the real Syria and its customs. . Our mission is to build Syria", concluded the current leader of Syria. (A2 Televizion)
