قدري جميل

The Moscow Platform for Syrian Opposition held a hybrid in-person and virtual meeting on Sunday 11/24/2024, with both previous members and new joiners: Obaida Nahhas from the National Renewal Movement, Salah Darwish, Secretary of the Kurdish Progressive Democratic Party in Syria, and prominent national figure Professor Hassan Hani Al-Atrash.

Participants reviewed the current political landscape and ways to advance comprehensive political solution in Syria, adopting a document titled "Moscow Platform... Programmatic Topics."

This document develops the 2014 founding text of the Change and Liberation Front, including brief programmatic axes reflecting the Front's main orientations.

The document emphasizes restoring Syria's unity, ending de facto partition, and removing foreign forces including "Israeli" occupation from occupied Syrian Golan.

The Platform views full implementation of Resolution 2254 as the only crisis solution, through direct dialogue between qualified regime and opposition delegations, ensuring Syrian people's self-determination.

The document envisions future Syria as a people-governed state based on social justice and equal rights within an integrated democratic system. It considers the Kurdish issue a national democratic matter requiring constitutional resolution within the national framework.

The document identifies opponents of political transition as Zionists, war profiteers, corrupt individuals, and extremists, noting Western projects aim to prolong crisis and divide Syria.

The Platform asserts Western sanctions target weakening Syria and its people, representing another face of major corruption. It calls for a new political, economic, and social model based on high productivity, comprehensive development, and fair wealth distribution.

It demands constitutional reform ensuring separation of powers, strengthened People's Assembly role, and judicial independence. The document concludes with a vision balancing centralization and decentralization, ensuring strong central authority in key issues while granting broad regional powers and developing the electoral system.
