U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has expressed support for an agreement between the Syrian interim authorities and the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) aimed at integrating northeastern Syria into a unified Syrian state. Rubio's statement highlights the U.S. commitment to a political transition that ensures non-sectarian governance, while also expressing concerns over recent violence against minorities. The agreement, signed on Monday by interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa and SDF commander Mazloum Abdi, involves the integration of all civil and military institutions in northeastern Syria, including border crossings, airports, and oil and gas fields, into the national administration. This move is seen as a significant step towards unifying the country since the fall of Bashar al-Assad. The SDF, backed by the United States and controlling a large part of Syria's oil-rich northeast, has agreed to join the new Syrian state institutions. The deal also includes a ceasefire across Syria and SDF support in combating pro-Assad fighters, affirming the Kurdish community's integral role in Syria and their rights to citizenship and constitutional protections.
