Open Letter from the Moscow Platform to the Syrian Negotiation Commission
Fellows in the Syrian Negotiation Commission (SNC),
Fellows in the Syrian Negotiation Commission (SNC),
The play, in which the United States played the role of «mediator» or «sponsor» of any peace process in Syria, ended today.
When Washington makes isolated decision or approach away from the whole world, while its own decline as evident for anyone who sees, it means, first of all, that it is an obligatory approach.
Statement by People's Will Party
The leadership of the Syrian Negotiation Commission (SNC) and the influential group within it continue to practice their behavior which is hostile to political solution and Astana path, and supportive for the destructive Western proposals, especially those of James Jeffrey, whose habit is to make escalatory statements between now and then, which do not last too long before they fall and he resorts to silence again, and even totally disappears from the picture, only to reappear after a while bringing other fake proposals like their precedents.
Western countries continue to tighten their economic sanctions on Syria, at various levels, including sanctions on individuals and institutions, as well as threats of sanctions against other countries if they deal with Syria economically.
James Jeffrey was reemerged from his almost three-month lull: since Trump announced the withdrawal of his forces from Syria until the beginning of the last week. He reappeared repeating his same «goals» that he had put forward since his appointment, but after he had made rewarding discounts and forced changes on them, imposed by the recession of the US commodity in general, and his own commodity in particular.
He loses his understanding of reality and falls into errors ranging from minor to major, in the national sense, the one who views Astana as a temporary or transitory understanding related to Syria.
Anyone who tries to understand the Syrian crisis can look at Astana's path, its development and impact, as one of the components of this understanding. But stopping at this point in reading, that is to say, to consider Astana as a detail, whether large or small, within the context of the Syrian situation, would narrow the horizons of understanding to the extent that it necessarily turns into a misunderstanding.
Article 2 of Chapter 1 of the current Constitution of the Syrian Arab Republic, states that «Sovereignty is an attribute of the people; and no individual or group may claim sovereignty. Sovereignty shall be based on the principle of the rule of the people by the people and for the people». The same meaning can also be found in all previous Syrian constitutions, that is: the starting point in understanding «national sovereignty» is the sovereignty of the Syrian people.
