Iran is fully prepared to support the Syrian government, people, and army as much as it is necessary.

— The regime’s failure to reconcile with its people, rising economic issues, terrorist activities, institutional dysfunction, and targeting of civilians have fueled the current events.

— Mistakes of 2011 must not be repeated. Reconciliation, not war, should be sought. Tensions must be reduced immediately, civilians and infrastructure must not be targeted, and the rights of minorities and diverse religious groups must be protected.

— The Astana process achieved a ceasefire, yet Assad failed to use the past seven years to establish peace with his people, the root cause of all issues. This mistake must not be repeated, and the regime cannot ignore the opposition.

— From this point onward, a political process between the regime and the opposition must be initiated. The regime must act realistically and make genuine efforts to reach an agreement with the opposition.

— A sustainable peace process must now begin. For Turkey, Syria’s territorial integrity and unity are paramount.

— The regime must reconcile with its people and establish an inclusive administration for all ethnic and religious groups to ensure stability and peace. Turkey stands ready to support this.

— There will be no compromise on counter-terrorism efforts.
