Sharia in Paris … the first western capital to visit him since he arrived in power
Among all the countries of the European Union, Paris seems more interested in “normalizing” its relations with the Syrian transition authorities and with its president, Ahmed al -Shara, and this emerged during four stations: the first, sending several diplomats to Damascus for the aim of establishing the first contact with the new authorities and ri -ta thinking about the French flag to the French effect in the Syrian in the capital of Syrian.
The second station was represented by the visit of the Foreign Minister, Jean -Nawil Barrow, with his German counterpart, Perbuk analog, in Damascus, and therefore it was the European Foreign Foreign Prime Minister who restored high -level communication with these powers. The third station was the conference of support for the Syrian people, hosted by Paris, in the presence of the Syrian Foreign Minister Asian Asaad al -Shaibani on February 13th. As for the fourth station, the day of the visit of the Lebanese president, by Joseph Aoun, was official in Paris on March 28, where President Emmanuel made a second “Bilateral” with the trip of Joseph Aoun, was official in Paris on March 28, where President Emmanuel Macron made a second “bilateral” with the trip with Joseph Aun’s trip, the president, in which the main files of interest for Lebanon, such as borders, terrorism and migrations, discussed. Paris was also the main country that pushed the European Union to raise some economic sanctions imposed on Syria.
On Wednesday, the visit of Al -Shara to the first European capital is the implementation of a promise that Macron cut last February and, at the end of March, it was expected that it was implemented to form a new Syrian government that includes “all the members of civil society” and to provide security for the return of Syrian refugees.
Arab diplomatic sources in Paris wanted that the arrival of Sharia in France, in this particular moment, ten days before the new Arabic summit that Baghdad will host: “It brings more than a sign, the most important of which is that Paris wants to be a pioneer and in normalizing its relations with Syria, and perhaps is considered such a step, despite what has been witnessed in Syria on the Alawita coast, Syria, and perhaps is considered such a passage, despite what has been witnessed in Syria on the Alawita coast, in the Governate and Homs in Syria, and perhaps it is considered such a step, despite what we attended Syria on the Awite coast, in the home of Dru – regime to work hard to end violence, a moderate policy and to respond to what requires, without interruption, the international family.
These sources have also seen that Paris wants to have a role in Syria and maintain a sort of influence in it, as well as his desire to have a part of the reconstruction process when he starts after things have stabilized and the penalties are raised by them. These sources indicate that the first al -ghaith was the signature of the company, “CGGC GM”, which is managed by the Lebanese -french -rudolph, a contract with the Syrian government for a period of 30 years; Develop and manage the port of Lattakia, in the presence of Sharia personally.
France and obligations
In his presentation of the visit, Elysee’s sources saw that France “has never changed its position and has remained set in its support for the Syrian people and the resurrection of Syria is free, multiple, enjoying sovereignty and living in peace and stability with its neighbors”, adding that “what France asked yesterday is still asking for today”.
According to what he said, the Paris meeting in support of Syria put, on the initiative of President Macron, “the framework to provide support for the transition phase in Syria, linked to the implementation of the obligations of the Syrian authorities” regarding the Syrian people and the international family.
And when he referred to some of what these authorities have reached, he stressed that the transition path is not “completed” and is up to “anxiety” raised by sectarian tensions and mobile violence from the Alawi coast to the Druze and others areas.
Paris confirmed that her first request is to “prevent impunity” for the managers of these actions, asking for the completion of the work of the Investigation Committee that has been trained, to announce the results of his work and that the officials are tried.
He said President Macron will raise this problem with Sharia. The other main topics that are receiving Paris are treated mainly, fighting terrorism, in particular ISIS, which is “the greatest threat” for Syria, and Macron wants to make sure that this commitment is still underway. Paris reported that he asked the European Union to proceed with a decision that allows the imposition of sanctions to the managers of the massacres and violence, as well as trying them regardless of their affiliations or doctrines.
The two numbers of Lebanon and the Kurds
The second file that counts for Paris has the right to the relationship between the Kurds and Damascus, and Paris hopes to continue the dialogue between the two sides and which will pay its fruits.
Elysee revealed that this file was the subject of consultation with the American party; At the level of the Foreign Minister or President Macron personally with President Donald Trump. In the same way, Paris wants the Damascus authorities to work to contribute to Syria to regional stability, indicating in particular to Lebanon, and the need to improve coordination in the joint committee that has formed between the two sides to provide safety on the Lebanese -ordacal border. Of course, the Syrian refugees file in neighboring countries, as well as in Europe, will be a place of discussion with Sharia. Elysee excluded that a tripartite presidential debate (includes the Lebanese president), as it took place during his visit to France.
Finally, the clear Israeli intervention file in Syria and its continuous operations will also be a place of discussion between the two parts. Paris focuses on the refusal of any action that would double the difficulties in front of the Syrian authorities. But it has been shown that Israel does not take these warnings into consideration.
In the economic file, Syria will be the demand to raise the imposed sanctions, present in the interviews. Elysee recalled that the bank is the states that the reconstruction of Syria requires $ 250 billion and that the “sectoral” sanctions presented by the European Union are not sufficient and that the US sanctions are slowing down on Syria and preventing them from attracting investments that in turn need a legal framework and guarantees from the Syrian side.
It was noteworthy that the declaration issued by the Elysee Palace to announce the visit on Tuesday morning, included a proven buying completes what France wants and what is required by Sharia. The meeting declared that “it is part of the historical commitment of France towards the Syrians who look at peace and democracy”, and offers the opportunity for President Macron “, to reaffirm the support of France for the construction of a new Syria, Syria is free, stable and sovereign who respects all the members of the Syrian company”. On the other hand, there is a series of main problems that Macron will be renewed and previously we will refer on more than one occasion.
According to Elysee, Macron will remember Sharia “with his requests from the Syrian government, which above all is stability in the region, in particular Lebanon, as well as the fight against terrorism, which is a security problem for the Syrians and all residents of the region and especially for the French”, according to the Eelsee Palace.
