Syria’s President Ahmed Al-Sharaa has stated that his country is pursuing a security agreement with Israel, according to an interview with Al Jazeera. The proposal involves the participation of several countries, aiming to establish a framework for peace that does not undermine Syria’s claims over the Golan Heights. The initiative comes amid ongoing regional tensions and efforts to stabilize the Middle East.
Al-Sharaa emphasized that a successful agreement could lead to a broader peace settlement. The Syrian leadership has long sought to reclaim the Golan Heights, which Israel occupied during the 1967 Six-Day War. The security deal would reportedly address mutual concerns, including border stability and regional security.
The proposal is part of Damascus’s broader strategy to engage with Israel while maintaining its stance on territorial sovereignty. Al Jazeera reported that the Syrian president outlined his country’s approach to security cooperation with both Israel and Lebanon. The details of the agreement remain under discussion, with no official timeline yet announced. (aljazeera.com)
