Al-Bursan: Regime's "reconciliations" are flimsy

 The Damascus government resorts to so-called “reconciliations in some areas, with the aim of extending its control over them. However, daily practical experience has proven that these did not contribute to achieving security and stability in those areas.

 Recently, there has been talk of similar steps in the regions of northern and eastern Syria, which were categorically rejected by the components of the region.

 During a meeting that our agency conducted with Sheikh Lorans Al-Bursan, a member of the Al-Walda clan's notables council in Raqqa, he confirmed their rejection of these "individual reconciliations."

 Al-Bursan noted that the Damascus government is taking advantage of the need of some residents of the region.

 Al-Bursan likened these "reconciliations" to flimsy, like a spider's thread, "which is useless, and if there was a serious desire for settlements, it would have adopted International Resolution No. 2254, and worked on it on the basis of a comprehensive Syrian settlement to resolve the Syrian crisis."

He said, "If the regime wants reconciliation in the current period, it must be through the Syrian-Syrian dialogue table."

 Sheikh Al-Bursan added, "Following these reconciliations, the sheikhs and dignitaries of the tribes in the region held a meeting in the guesthouse of the Sheikh of the Afada tribe Huwaidi Al-Shalash, and a statement was issued in which they rejected any individual reconciliation process and demanded that the settlement be a general solution to the Syrian crisis."

 He considered these "reconciliations" insulting to the Syrian people in general, and ended his speech by saying: "We say to those who have been deceived that these reconciliations are flimsy and do not benefit or benefit anything, and do not benefit the public interest," and called for settlements to be comprehensive in accordance with international resolutions.
