The West should not be afraid: the leader of the Syrian rebels made a statement to the media Sergey Popovich

The leader of the Syrian rebel movement Hayat Tahrir al-Sham Abu Mohammad al-Jolani addressed Western countries with a statement. He called on them not to be afraid of a change of power in Syria.

What the leader of the Syrian opposition said

He noted that the Assad regime had brought Syria to devastation. Now the country will be rebuilt.

Western countries should not be afraid. Syria is moving towards stability and development. The main source of fear was the Assad regime, which brought the country to destruction. The people are exhausted by the war and are striving for peace, al-Jolani emphasized.

He emphasized that the Assad family's long-standing corruption and greed were the cause of the current crisis, and that Russia and Iran's attempts to consolidate their influence in Syria have failed.

Despite his controversial past, including ties to al-Qaeda, al-Jolani argues that the rebel movement today is focused on rebuilding the country and building a stable future.
