Secretary-General calls reported dissolution of Syrian Democratic Forces a 'positive development' for unity and stability
Summary
When asked about reports that the Syrian Democratic Forces would dissolve and integrate with the Syrian government, the Secretary-General described the development as "a very positive development" that could help consolidate stability, unity and sovereignty in Syria.
A reporter identified as Mora asked the Secretary-General to comment on reports that the Syrian Democratic Forces, a Kurdish organization, announced it was dissolving itself to integrate with the Syrian government. The question framed the move as a potential step toward political integration.
The Secretary-General responded positively, saying that in a diverse country "diversity is recognized" but that unity is also important. He called the reported step "a very positive development to progressively consolidate the stability, the unity, and the sovereignty of Syria." He did not offer details on how the integration would be managed or whether the UN would play a formal facilitating role.
The Secretary-General's remarks framed the announcement as potentially constructive for Syria's stability; no additional operational steps, timelines, or UN-mediated processes were announced during the briefing.
