The move comes amid renewed international focus on counterterrorism coordination and stabilization efforts across the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The embassy\u2019s representatives stressed that ISIS \u201ccontinues to kill Syrians, threaten innocent civilians, and endanger the country\u2019s recovery process,\u201d underscoring the persistent threat the group poses despite territorial losses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They added that Syria\u2019s accession to the Global Coalition will open the door for new opportunities in training and security cooperation, ultimately aimed at protecting all Syrians from terrorism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The diplomats highlighted that this step represents a broader effort by Syria to engage with international partners, including the United States and other coalition members, in the fight against terrorism. \u201cWorking together with the United States and partner nations is part of the path toward building a safer and more stable Syria,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the statement, the embassy viewed Syria\u2019s inclusion in the coalition as not only a military achievement but also a moral victory for humanity, reaffirming shared global responsibility in eliminating extremist threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The embassy officials emphasized that the next step toward a more prosperous Syria should be for the U.S. Congress to lift the Caesar sanctions, which have imposed significant restrictions on the Syrian economy in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS, established in 2014, includes dozens of countries and organizations that coordinate efforts to combat the extremist group. The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), supported by the coalition, have played a decisive role in defeating ISIS in northeastern Syria and continue to lead counterterrorism operations to prevent its resurgence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Atoun Jan<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) \u2013 Diplomats from the U.S.
