Syrian official says government withdrawing from Paris talks on integrating Kurds

The Syrian government has announced its withdrawal from upcoming talks in Paris regarding the integration of the Kurdish semi-autonomous administration into the Syrian state, insisting that all future negotiations be held in Damascus. This decision follows a conference organized by the Kurdish administration, which brought together various Syrian minority communities and called for a democratic, decentralized constitution. The government criticized the conference, viewing it as a challenge to current negotiation efforts and an attempt to invite foreign interference in Syrian affairs. Officials stated they would not engage with parties seeking to revive previous regimes or with separatist figures, emphasizing Damascus as the only legitimate venue for dialogue among Syrians.
