The ministry confirmed that the three countries had agreed to cooperate \u201cwithin full respect for Syrian sovereignty\u201d in addressing the unrest that has shaken the southern province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the statement, the first step calls for the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria to conduct an urgent investigation into recent incidents in Suwayda. The Syrian government pledged to hold accountable all perpetrators of violations under national law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The plan also includes the continuation of humanitarian and medical aid deliveries to the province, with Jordan and the US expected to mobilize international donor support to secure sufficient funding. Damascus committed to restoring essential services across Suwayda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of the roadmap, trained Interior Ministry forces will be deployed along the Suwayda\u2013Damascus road to ensure safe civilian and commercial movement. The statement further noted that all armed civilian groups will be withdrawn from the province\u2019s administrative borders, with qualified police units replacing them. These measures, it said, were in line with the Amman Agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The roadmap also emphasizes reconciliation and social cohesion. Jordan, in coordination with Damascus, will invite delegations representing Suwayda\u2019s diverse communities\u2014including Druze, Christians, Sunnis, and tribal leaders\u2014for dialogue sessions aimed at fostering unity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The government pledged to advance a \u201cnational narrative\u201d that promotes equality, pluralism, and rule of law while accelerating legislation to curb hate speech. Local police units, composed of all components of Suwayda society, will be established under Interior Ministry oversight and led by a figure from the province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The statement highlighted additional steps, including the removal of external influence in Suwayda, reaffirmation of Syria\u2019s territorial integrity, and security understandings between Damascus and Washington regarding Israel\u2019s concerns in southern Syria, with Jordan\u2019s support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, the three countries will set up a monitoring mechanism to oversee the implementation of the roadmap, ensuring compliance while upholding Syrian sovereignty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Atoun Jan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAMASCUS, Syria (North Press) \u2013 The Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a detailed statement on Tuesday evening outlining a six-step roadmap, backed by Jordan and the United States, aimed at resolving the ongoing crisis in Suwayda Governorate.
