Trump envoy: Ahmed al-Shara’s goals are in line with US interests.
“Tom Barak,” the US special envoy for Syria, supported the positions of the self-proclaimed Syrian president, Ahmed al-Sharaa (Mohammad al-Julani), in a new speech on Thursday morning and emphasized the coordination of the goals of the two sides.
According to Al Jazeera, Barak said: “I am sure that al-Sharaa has honest intentions and his goals in Syria are in line with our goals.”
He also added: “The goals of the Syrian president are also in line with the interests of America’s allies, and Iran is a common challenge for us.”
The Trump administration’s envoy emphasized: “President Trump acted correctly in his decision to lift sanctions against Syria,” and emphasized that “security and stability in Syria can only be achieved through the participation of all segments and currents in the national government project.”
In another part of his speech, Barak referred to Mohammad Golani’s position towards the Zionist regime and said: “Al-Shara’a has clearly stated that it does not view Israel as an enemy, but rather considers it a country that considers the establishment of a demilitarized zone in southern Syria essential for its security.”
