This came during the ANHA agency meeting with the head of the branch of the Syrian National Democratic Alliance in al-Tabqa Salam Hussein, who stressed the importance of a political solution away from the military one.

Peaceful movement radicalized into armed one

"The Syrian crisis cannot be solved militarily," he said. "what complicated it is the use of arms by the opposition parties, and the transformation of the revolutionary peaceful movement into an armed movement that is completely linked to the armed conflict. With the foreign agendas of regional countries pursuing radicalism, which held the scene of the Syrian crisis and led to the emergence of extremist groups such as Daesh, al-Nusra and the factions of so-called "Free Army," all these groups are linked by one common denominator: radical thought, the idea of ​​not accepting the other party in all its forms."

With the end of 2011 and the beginning of 2012, the peaceful movement began to become militarized. The formation of the so-called "free army" was announced, and military confrontations on a limited scale began turning then into a major military confrontation after the Syrian regime's use of artillery and heavy weapons in March of the same year and the use of warplanes in the bombing in early April 2012.

Northeast of Syria, the way to end the Syrian crisis

Today, after the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) liberated northern and eastern regions of Syria from terrorism, those forces proved to the world the will of the people of the region to liberate their land, strengthened the political status of the region in international forums and the international community, which have only to consider their policies towards those areas at the current stage.

In his view, Salam Hussein believes that the regions of northern and eastern Syria have become a magnet for all democratic and secular forces and movements because of the nature of their cultural and political diversity. He added: "This will enable all these forces to form a pressure card on the Syrian authority to negotiate with the parties on the ground to end the Syrian crisis through parties supporting and sponsoring the involved in the Syrian conflict providing some guarantees, such as the Russian party, which must be the guarantor of the Syrian government's commitment to sit on the dialogue table anywhere in Syria not exclusively in Damascus for it may be in the north and east of Syria."

The pillars of power ... a mentality to be changed

"The Syrian regime has recently made several Russian-supported advances in the face of extremist groups, and this has earned it some confidence in re-establishing the regime and restoring the situation to before the 2011, but the mentality of the Syrian regime today needs to change its policies, through the opening of diplomatic channels with all the Syrian."

Drafting a constitution includes all parties is solution to the Syrian crisis

In discussing the issue of drafting a new constitution for Syria, Hussein noted that SDF were able to remove all the obstacles and barriers that stood in its way by eliminating terrorism that ended its existence. He said: "The end of the Syrian crisis is through finding political solutions that restructure the Syrian constitution, with all the Syrian parties sitting at the table of dialogue, earlier, previous arguments of some parties were the existence of terrorism in Syria and the necessity to eliminate it first, then sitting to joint dialogue is possible, today SDF terminated the existence of terrorism, i.e. Daesh on the geography of the region, and this guaranteed removing all barriers and obstacles in the way of resolving the Syrian crisis through dialogue. "

In January, the Syrian National Dialogue Conference in the Russian city of Sochi entrusted de Mistura with the task of forming a committee to draft a new constitution, following which the UN special envoy subsequently received regime and opposition nominees for the proposed candidates.

On February 18, the co-chair of the Syrian Democratic Council, Riyad Darrar, said during a telephone conversation with Al Arabiya Net: "The Syrian opposition is repeating the method of the regime in monopolizing its resolutions, and claiming that it is the legitimate representative of the Syrian people, "He stressed during his call:" The Autonomous Administrations in the north, east and Syria will continue to support their vision and the next stage will witness a political and diplomatic momentum, although busy in the liberation of the land from Daesh."

"In drafting a new constitution for Syria, all the rights of the components of the Syrian people, whether the ethnic or sectarian components that the current constitution denied, must be guaranteed. Today, a constitution must be drafted that establishes the principle of coexistence and cultural diversity by creating a new ground for Syrian reality, a national project that protects the rights of the Syrian people and sovereignty, which the Turkish state violated by occupying vast areas of Syrian territory.
