In a pivotal national dialogue conference held in Damascus, Syria's interim president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, declared this moment a "historic" opportunity to rebuild the nation following the ousting of Bashar al-Assad. With 600 delegates contributing recommendations on vital topics such as transitional justice, economic reforms, and a new constitution, the conference seeks to guide the formation of a new transitional government. However, concerns over the inclusivity of the process have arisen, particularly noting the absence of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) from the discussions. Al-Sharaa emphasized the need for unity and the disarmament of armed groups to ensure a cohesive future for Syria. Meanwhile, the international community watches closely, urging an inclusive approach that represents the diverse ethnic and religious groups within the country.
