US Envoy Calls Syria-YPG Deal “Historic Milestone” for Reconciliation
(MENAFN) US Special Envoy for Syria Tom Barrack on Friday praised the newly announced agreement between the Syrian government and the YPG, operating under the name Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), calling it a “historic milestone” for national reconciliation and stability in Syria.
In a statement on US social media company X, Barrack said the deal marks a “significant step toward unity, inclusion and de-escalation,” building on previous efforts to integrate military, security, and administrative structures into state institutions.
Barrack, who also serves as US Ambassador to Türkiye, emphasized that the agreement reflects a shared commitment to protecting Syria’s territorial integrity and promoting inclusive governance, while paving the way for broader political participation.
He highlighted recent initiatives by Damascus regarding the Kurdish community, including measures on citizenship restoration, language recognition, and legal protections, describing them as steps toward addressing long-standing grievances.
According to Barrack, these actions could help rebuild trust, strengthen state institutions, and create conditions favorable for reconstruction and long-term stability. Earlier Friday, Syrian media reported that Damascus and the YPG had reached a new ceasefire and integration agreement, providing for the phased incorporation of the group’s military and administrative structures into government institutions.
