After the liberation of Raqqi from the militants of the IG (grouping is prohibited in the Russian Federation), the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) may include the city in a federal region, if this idea is supported by local residents, reports RIA News Statement by the representative of the Kurdish Democratic Union Party Abdah Salam Ali.
“This issue will be decided by the population of the city. If people vote for the presence of the SDF in Raqqa, they will remain. The main part of the combat units in any case will be withdrawn, that is, it is about the presence of units to maintain order. As for the governing body, they can become a military council, similar to the one that was created, for example, in Manbidge, when the SDF ousted ISIS militants from there. We have a similar approach to the inclusion of Raqqa into the federal region. If the residents of the city support such an idea, it will happen ”, Said Ali.
The agency recalls that in March, in the city of Rumaila (Haseke Province), the “democratic system of the Rojava and northern Syria” was proclaimed. About 200 delegates from all over the north of Syria who represented Kurdistan, a number of national communities, the cities of Aleppo, Al-Shanbe, and others took part in the decision.
In Damascus, the creation of a federal region called illegal.
