In a statement to "North Press," Tariq Al-Shufi, head of the Federal Syria Current, said: "We tried to deliver a message to the countries of the free world that support democracy, secularism, and decentralization, to produce a state of agreement among some political components in As-Suwayda on decentralization and the secularism of the state in As-Suwayda as one of the successful localized solutions."
During the conference, Lina Abu Hamdan, a member of the Freedom and Peace Current, emphasized the importance of implementing decentralization in As-Suwayda and working on a kind of self-administration in the region.
This conference comes in the context of ongoing efforts by political forces in As-Suwayda to search for political solutions that ensure the rights of all Syrian components and achieve a democratic and secular system.
