A statement delivered at the end of the one-day conference paved the way for a new constitution to be drafted and emphasised the importance of freedom of expression and human rights. Among the attendees was Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, who had earlier called for Syrians to stand united and hand in hand to heal the wounds and wash away the pains after decades of dictatorship. The nature of that constitution will reveal a lot about Syria’s future, particularly as doubts remain among many over Al-S Israel has taken control of areas outside of the buffer zone, including Mount Hermon. It rejected Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s threat that his country would not allow Syrian military forces to be present in southern Syria. The conference also opposed Israel’s attempts to stoke sectarian tensions. Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani was quick to push back against those statements. The Dialogue’s closing statement called for protection of freedoms. Another rights issue referred to in the closing statement was achieving transitional justice. Reports have emerged in recent weeks of revenge attacks against people associated with the al-Assad regime in Homs and other parts of the country. Sabra lives in exile in France and said he could not travel to Syria in time. Critics say the nature of the announcement is part of a wider pattern.
