Syrian Kurdistan administration is not separatist: official

The joint chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee of the North and East Syrian Autonomous Administration stated that the Kurdish-led administration does not seek the disintegration of Syria and is committed to its unity.

Ms. Dania Ramazan made the remarks in reaction to the statement of the countries sponsoring the Astana process which is seeking to find a solution to the civil war in Syria.

The sponsors of Astana Talks, Iran, Russia and Turkey have accused the Autonomous Administration as seeking to divide Syria.

In an interview with Hawar News Agency, Dania Ramazan stressed that the administration is not separatist, noting that it is Turkey which threatens Syria integrity through its military attacks and the occupation of parts of northern Syria.

"It is unfortunate that the guarantor countries in the Astana process make accusations that have nothing to do with reality," Ramazan added.

"The unity and integrity of the Syrian territory is a strategic goal of the administration, and the social contract on which it has been established is proof of this claim," she further said.

Ramazan called the allegations a Turkish conspiracy, saying: "It is no secret that the separatist accusations are made by Turkey while it is occupying parts of northern Syria and is trying to change the ethnic context of the region."
