BRUSSELS, Dec. 8 () –

The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Policy, Kaja Kallas, has described as “positive” the end of the “dictatorship” of the Syrian president, Bashar al Assad, and has assured that this shows the weakness of his allies, Russia and Iran. .

“I am in close contact with the ministers of the region. The reconstruction process in Syria will be long and complicated and all parties must be willing to collaborate constructively,” he indicated in a brief message on the X social network.

Kallas added that the priority now is to “guarantee security in the region.” “I will work with all constructive partners, in Syria and in the region,” the EU’s top diplomat reiterated.

The offensive in Syria, launched on November 27 from the province of Idlib and led by Hayat Tahrir al Sham (HTS), has allowed the coalition of jihadists and rebels to take the Syrian capital, Damascus, as well as Aleppo and Hama, in the face of a constant withdrawal of government troops, backed by Turkey and Iran.
