He added that he hopes the agreement could serve as a gateway to comprehensive peace without undermining Syria’s claim to the Golan Heights.

Sharaa emphasized that Syria has no interest in becoming involved in any conflict with Israel.

Additionally, Syria has no intention of intervening militarily in Lebanon, although Damascus is discussing with the Lebanese government ways to help overcome the crisis there.

Any comprehensive solution to the crisis in Lebanon must address more than just a security aspect, Sharaa said, warning that chaos in Lebanon would have a direct impact on Syria.

Sharaa expressed Syria’s support for placing all weapons as well as decisions on war and peace under the authority of the Lebanese state.
