Resolving the issue of Kurds in Syria through federalism

Session

Security Studies

Description

The developments of the last decades in the Middle East, including the war in Syria, are putting above the surface the need to find a long-term solution to the problems. This is the only way to end conflicts and pave the way for sustainable peace. The Kurdish factor was strengthened both politically and militarily. In the turbulent sectarian and ideological map of the Middle East, this factor was the most important ally of all actors on a global scale who were interested in eliminating the danger from "Islamic State". The realities in Syria speak of the impossibility of a centralized state living in peace in Syria. Certain models of federalization of the country have been revealed in recent years and this is no longer a taboo topic. However, the large number of political-military actors involved complicates the path to peace, because they make the list of interests and concerns complicated.

Resolving the issue of Kurds in Syria through federalism

Lipjan, Kosovo

The developments of the last decades in the Middle East, including the war in Syria, are putting above the surface the need to find a long-term solution to the problems.

In the turbulent sectarian and ideological map of the Middle East, this factor was the most important ally of all actors on a global scale who were interested in eliminating the danger from "Islamic State". The realities in Syria speak of the impossibility of a centralized state living in peace in Syria.
