UN Syria envoy Geir Pedersen met with Syria's de facto leader, Ahmad al-Sharaa, on Sunday, where Sharaa called for a reassessment of the 2015 UN roadmap for Syria's political transition. The discussions focused on lifting sanctions and revising the roadmap to facilitate governance and elections.
On Sunday, December 15, UN Syria envoy Geir Pedersen met with Syria’s de facto leader, Ahmad al-Sharaa, also known by his rebel name Abu Mohammed al-Golani. Sharaa leads Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), an Islamist group formerly allied with al-Qaeda, which played a key role in the Syrian conflict.
During their meeting, Sharaa emphasized the need to reconsider the 2015 UN Security Council roadmap for Syria, known as Resolution 2254. This resolution outlines a process for a Syrian-led transition to non-sectarian governance and the drafting of a new constitution, with the ultimate goal of free and fair elections.
Pedersen expressed hope that ending the sanctions on Syria could help speed up the country’s economic recovery. The talks highlight the ongoing challenges in Syria and the need for a new approach to resolving the political crisis.
