Fidan Urges Armed Groups in Syria to Unite
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan has called for the unification of armed groups in Syria under a single national army.
“The existence of multiple armed groups affiliated with different authorities means a ground for civil war. This is not acceptable,” Fidan told Saudi broadcaster Asharq News in an interview on Jan. 26.
Fidan emphasized Türkiye's “constructive influence” on the matter, noting that the integration of armed factions is essential for Syria’s stability.
“The armed groups in the country should now be brought together under a single army, and a single legitimate state organ should only be authorized to carry weapons and use force. This is what should happen in all modern states,” he said.
"There are groups aligned with Türkiye comprising over 80,000 armed elements. We told them to go and join the national army without hesitation and not allow any disorder to occur in the country."
Fidan attributed Syria’s prolonged instability to excessive foreign interference.
"Unfortunately, this should not be the fate of the regions we live in. The fate of the regions where Muslims, Arabs, Turks and Persians live should change now," he said.
