The head of the United Nations, Volker Turk, has requested prompt investigations and said that those responsible should be taken into account. Turk said that the announcements of the country’s authorities to comply with the law must be followed by actions to protect Syrians and to ensure responsibility for abuse.

According to Labib Al-Nahhas, a Syrian politician and activist, violence is “a major delay” for Syria Post-Assad.

“What happened at this moment is an extremely sophisticated, coordinated, instigated and supported by Iran and Hezbollah, according to data and Intel that are available,” Al-Nahhas told Al Jazeera.

“Iran, who is looking for a new lever in Syria … is based on the sectarian and religious tension that exists in Syria because of six decades of the Syrian regime. But this is the place where the new authorities have the chance to show another type of tone and path. “

The new government must build “a powerful, unified national front”, which is a cornerstone “would be a new transitional government that is truly inclusive, not (just) lip service,” said Al-Nahhas.

“It is the responsibility not only of the authorities, but also of the whole Syrian society, to truly focus on the positive land.”

Meanwhile, Jordan hosted a regional conference on Sunday to discuss problems that Syria is facing, such as security, reconstruction and refugees. Top officials in Turkiye, Syria, Iraq and Lebanon have joined the Jordanian capital.

“All these countries that share a border with Syria have an interest in which there is stability and security for the new administration and the Syrian people,” said Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh, referring from Amman.

“For example, stability in Syria means that millions of refugees that Turkiye and Jordan host can voluntarily return to Syria,” she added.

“If there is stability and the rule of law and a united Syria, Iraq can have more comfort in the fight against ISIS (ISIL) … If there is stability and security, Jordan can also be more comfortable in fighting drug trafficking, which has created a crisis for the Iordanian government. “

Al-Assad’s overthrow in December ended more than five decades of dynastic government by his family, which was marked by severe repression and a devastating war that broke out in 2011, after the peaceful anti-government protests were met with a repression of brutal security. Tens of thousands of Syrians were killed and millions were forced to escape from the country or displaced internally, while Syria went down to war.
