US envoy states SDF’s role in Syria has diminished post-ISIL.

US Envoy Tom Barrack stated that the Syrian government is now taking on the role of the primary anti-ISIS force, replacing the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which has largely expired. Syria has joined the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS and is ready to assume security responsibilities, creating an opportunity for Kurds to integrate into Syrian society with citizenship rights and language protections. The ceasefire between the Syrian army and the SDF marks a significant development in President Ahmed al-Sharaa’s government’s efforts to establish stability in the region.
