​​​​​​​Muslim Sheikh Hesen: AANES exclusion aggravates Syrian Crisis

In 2014 the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria was announced mde up of three cantons of Jazira, Kobane and Afrin, after other Syrian territorie4s were liberated from ISIS civil and democratic administrations were announced in September 2018.

The AANES saw light t a time other Syrian territories were inflicted with untenable hardships that proceed up to date as the Syrian Crisis being monopolized by many regional and global powers that were looking for their mere benefits. The AANES is a rare model that ought to be applied to the whole of Syrian territories.

In an interview conducted by ANHA with member to the Central Committee of the Kurdish Democratic Unity Party in Syria, Yekiti, Muslim Sheikh Hesen, he said ''the establishment of the AANES was a vital step to preserve the integral unity of the Syrian soil, and to maintain the unity of the Syrian people and in defending Syrian territory in the face of regional and global powers that are working for their agenda''.

''the AANES served people in the areas under control amid hardships and obstacles from every side in contrast to other Syrian regions''.

Compared to other Syrian areas, the situation in regions under AANES control is much better, the AANES ought to spare no effort to maintain it self and consolidate it's position to play it's card in the discussions and deliberations that are taking place, the step that will be achieved if all political parties in the region are approached.

Muslim noted that if the international community is really eager to find a sustainable and a real solution to the Syrian Crisis all powers on the ground ought to attend meetings that have being taking place. If any component is marginalized or excluded that will aggravate the situation, the AANES represents people in North Eastern Syria on which it should attend such meetings.

''From the onset of the Syrian Crisis Turkish Occupation Forces coveted many Syrian territories and occupied many areas that are located on it's border under national security in a bid similar to that of Alexandretta annexation in 1939 after the Syrian Government renounced it'', he said.   

Renouncing Alexandretta was not the sole step, Syria relinquished all border areas since 2011 that corroborates the occupation of Idlib and Jarablus that are being transformed into Turkish provinces amid Syrian Governmental silence that was followed by occupying Sere Kaniye and Gire Spi.

Muslim drew a parallel between the AANES and the areas under Turkish occupation, saying that the ''project applied by Turkey is watched by the Syrian Regime, they are in agreement to destroy the Kurdish people, Arabization and Turkufication are underway, Afrin is a good example to this, hot lines are still working between the two country's intelligence'', that are sparing no efforts to harm and damage the AANES as the Syrian Regime preserves silence regarding Turkish actions of water blocking by Turkey and closure of border crossings by the Syrian Regime, this is not by chance'', he said.

''Today, Syria is a divided country willfully or not, more specifically after Turkish occupation of vast territories of Syrian soil, great powers are not interests in ending the Syrian Crisis'', Muslim concluded.
