its unity as a state, while granting a large autonomy to local administrations, discuss the large forces involved in the peace talks on Syria under the auspices of the United Nations.
The intensity of the five-year war in Syria has decreased from the start of a εÏθÏαστης agreement to end the hostilities after the prompting of the United States and Russia that entered into effect before two weeks. A peace agreement with the normal cease-fire, however, remains elusive.
As the negotiator of the UN Στάφαν de ΜιστοÏÏα is preparing to meet with representatives of the syrian government and the opposition, none of the two sides has not confirmed that it will come in the most recent round of talks in Geneva.
One of the ideas being seriously discussed at this time about the likelihood of the recommendation of a federal state in Syria. Diplomat of the UN Security Council who wished to remain anonymous said that among the states who think the solution to this is Russia and western countries.
While the aim is to maintain the territorial integrity of Syria and to remain as single as a country, the diplomat said, “there are of course many kinds of different models of a federal structure which has, in some models, a too loose center and a lot of autonomy for different regions”. The statements were confirmed by a second diplomat.
The federal solution was rejected by the opposition in Syria, supported by Saudi Arabia. “Any mention of federalism or something which can show the direction to a division of Syria is completely unacceptable. We have agreed that we will extend a non-central government in the future Syria, but not with a federal structure or division for the country,” said Riad Hijab, a coordinator of the syrian opposition.
In an interview in September, the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad did not rule out a federal solution when asked about this, but added that any change should be preceded by dialogue between the Hauler and a referendum to introduce the necessary changes in the constitution of the country.
Saleh Μουσλίμ, συνηγÎτης of the syrian kurdish party PYD, which greatly affects the kurdish areas in Syria, has made it clear that it remains open to the idea. “We don’t care how you name it, we have said repeatedly that we want a decentralized Syria. Tell the regions, say federalism, anything is possible,” he said.
The next round of talks is not expected to last beyond the 24 March. After the end of this round is expected to take a break of a week or 10 days before you start. Speaking earlier yesterday, the head of the mission of the opposition in the talks said he was not optimistic about the holding of the Geneva talks, and has not confirmed the participation of his mission.
