After the collapse of the 61-year-old Baas regime, forced immigrants began to return to Syria, who left the country due to repression. This was stated by the leader of the new administration of Syria Ahmed al-Shara, speaking on the YouTube platform in an interview with the Joe Hattaba content chamber.
Ash Shara noted that in the territories under the control of the revolutionaries, none of the inhabitants was forced to evict. Moreover, people who sought security came to these areas. Now, according to him, representatives of all layers of society live together without conflicts.
Ash Shara expressed confidence that the process of returning immigrants will accelerate. “I am sure that in two years 14 million Syrians will return to the country. Only 1-1.5 million people will remain outside their homeland,” he said.
“We will create institutions that will perform justice”
Ash Shara emphasized that the overthrown regime used state institutions to suppress the people, resorting to violence and intimidation. According to him, the restoration of Syria will be based on the principle of justice.
“Leadership is to know when to move forward, when to stop and where you need to do this,” he stressed.
He added that for the effective restoration of the country, plans for a short -term, medium -term and long -term perspective, covering all spheres, including public institutions and authorities.
are needed.
Ash Shara also noted that the solution of existing problems in society will take time, but stable planning and education will help to cope with difficulties.
“We must remain true to our promises. Our priority will be the construction of fair institutions,” he said.
Public consent in Syria
Ash Shara noted that the Syrian society has reached consent. “Today in Syria there is a public consensus. For the first time, people can live, loving each other,” the head of the new administration emphasized.
According to him, the revolution has ended with the collapse of the regime, and now it is time to replace the revolutionary approach to public administration. Ash Shara defined the goal of the new government as a “victory without revenge” and positively appreciated the policy of amnesty.
Nevertheless, he specified that the amnesty would not spread to those who committed torture in prisons, dropped barrels or participated in mass killings. “For those who created cruelty in the Sednaya prison and other centers, there will be no amnesty,” he emphasized.
