DUBAI: Hadi Al-Bahra, head of the Syrian National Coalition, called on Wednesday for Syrians to unite behind a shared vision for the country’s recovery, urging national support for the current caretaker government until a transitional body can be established in March 2025.
Al-Bahra outlined a comprehensive roadmap for political transition, emphasizing the need to form a credible and inclusive transitional government.
He stressed that this government must avoid sectarianism and ensure that no political factions are excluded, reflecting a commitment to fairness and unity.
Al-Bahra called for the creation of a national conference and a constitutional assembly tasked with drafting a new constitution. This process, he said, would pave the way for a nationwide referendum and free elections, enabling the Syrian people to shape their future through democratic means.
“The transitional government must represent all Syrians,” Al-Bahra said, highlighting the importance of inclusivity as the cornerstone of Syria’s recovery.
While denying direct meetings with former regime leader Farouk Al-Sharaa, Al-Bahra confirmed indirect communications with individuals close to Al-Sharaa and members of the caretaker government.
