New Damascus Governor Declares ‘Our Problem Not With Israel’ As Tel Aviv Expands Occupation Of South Syria
The HTS-appointed official said Syria wants ‘peace’ and ‘cannot be an opponent’ to Israel while downplaying Israeli attacks and occupation
The new governor of Syria’s capital, Damascus, Maher Marwan, said in an interview released on 27 December that the country’s new authorities are looking to establish cordial ties with Israel, and do not want to “threaten” its “security” in any way.
“Israel may have felt fear. So, it advanced a little, bombed a little, etcetera,” Maher told US-based news outlet NPR in an interview, downplaying the massive and unprecedented bombing campaign and army incursion launched by Israel in Syria after the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s government.
This fear was “natural,” Marwan added. “We have no fear towards Israel, and our problem is not with Israel,” he went on to say in a message relayed on behalf of Syria’s new government.
“And we don’t want to meddle in anything that will threaten Israel’s security or any other country’s security. There exist a people who want coexistence. They want peace. They don’t want disputes,” the governor told NPR. “We want peace, and we cannot be an opponent to Israel or an opponent to anyone.”
Marwan was not the first member of Syria’s new administration led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) to openly declare a lack of animosity towards Israel.
