Part 3/8:
The discussion touched on the evolving role of the leader behind Syria’s offensive, described as having a background steeped in hard-line jihadism. According to Feiner, U.S. designations against him and his group remain in place, underscoring that actions speak louder than words. The U.S. is committed to evaluating these leaders based on their decision-making amid the newly bestowed responsibilities in Syria.
Despite the dubious past affiliations of these groups, Feiner noted that constructive dialogue must translate into tangible improvements to foster an inclusive governance system that genuinely reflects Syria's diverse population.
