French delegation visits north and east Syria (Rojava)

 The lawyer of the Paris Bar and the representative of the National Consultative Committee on Human Rights (CNCDH) Simon Forman, the lawyer of the Bar of Rouen and the representative of the National Council of Trade Unions, (CNB), Richard Seidlow, the lawyer of the Paris Bar, and the Secretary-General of the NGO,  Lawyers Without Borders France (ASF FRANCE), Matthew Pagard, and French Member of Parliament Hebert Julien Laverire, visit to the Department of Foreign Relations in the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria.

 The delegation was received by the co-chair of the Department of Foreign Relations, Abdul Karim Omar, and the two deputy co-chairs of the Department of Foreign Relations, Fanar al-Kait, and Abeer Elia at the department's headquarters in Qamishlo.

 During the meeting that brought the two sides together, Abdul Karim Omar touched on the overall political situation in Syria, especially the regions of north and east Syria, and issues related to combating terrorism in the region.

 Omar also shed light during the meeting on the Turkish threats that it launches from time to time to occupy the areas of north and east Syria, the violations taking place in the Syrian areas occupied by Turkey, as well as the economic situation that the region is going through, especially after the closure of the Tel Kojer (Al Yaroubiya) border crossing with the Syrian side.

 Omar focused on the conditions of ISIS mercenaries and their families in detention or in the camps, and the need to prosecute them in the regions of northern and eastern Syria (the area in which they committed the crime).  He pointed to the dangers posed by the Turkish occupation's recent threats to northern and eastern Syria and to the prisons and camps housing ISIS members and families.

He stressed that the radical solution to this issue is for each country to come and take its nationals, and until this problem is resolved, the Autonomous Administration needs financial support, so that it can better control the security and humanitarian situation in the detention centers.
