What did you see? What did you hear? In the meeting of President Ahmed Al -Sharaa with a group of Arab journalists after presenting parts of the meeting that took place two weeks ago in Damascus? We heard words said for the first time in Syria publicly and from its president.
Here is the “national state” that is rehabilitated after it has long been talked about from the obedience, defamation and mugs in Syria, the Baath, which has been bound to everyone who adopted this political thought that puts his national state first and before anything else above any consideration and its decoration by reaction, the state was an obstacle and a dam in front of the unity of the nation, and its resurrection again, when its slogan was one Arab nation with a immortal message, or one Islamic nation, when the Muslim Brotherhood raised it Syria, both of which are an international thought that does not accommodate its space for the Qatari state.
It comes to Syria specifically a day, and in the Arab pioneers of the Arab nationalism in which its president declares that Syria is a national state, it is first into consideration, second and third, there is no annexation or compulsory unity, no expansion or dreams of such such, but rather realism that is satisfied with it, and stands on its solid land.
This is the policy of the possible and not supposed, and this is the policy and thought of regimes in the Arab Gulf states since its foundation as sheikhdoms, then emirates, then states and properties, as it has been established from its foundation to this day the idea of an independent “national state” with sovereignty and concerned with it security and economically, and its national identity is first and the unity of its people and its lands, without this means its dissolution of its Arab identity.
And how much we had shortened to ourselves this hard path of perseverance and the guardian of the facts and integration with algebra and the annexation and the unit at night the number one statement, and it was a biography of the day by statement No. 2, we had made a long time and we care about our own affairs and our growth and our old The entire Arab North dealt with this logical thinking that they played on us, and it was a humiliation for us in the past. How much national thought mocked the Gulf states, and considered it reactionary and just states, each of which wants to have an independent entity, so that it does not join and does not integrate except with its consent and the choice of its people, as if that option is vigorous and defective.
Today, a head of wars came from a young age for the sake of the “nation” and he dreamed of gathering all Arab countries under one banner in the past, even if he grew up and absorbed the shocking facts, he did not find an outrage in reviewing this thought and returning to the truth.
The Syrian president says he wants to care and mean the Syrian affairs, and build sound and healthy relations with all neighboring countries – even if Israel – and he wants to apply the Gulf model in economic development and wants to get rid of the revenge desire and not be preoccupied with it and the wars that never end.
He wants numbers, not slogans, he wants economic reports, not tactical data, he wants to prepare Syria as an opportunity for expatriates to return to it voluntarily, security, peace, and a country in which his livelihood is, in short, that is the national state that it believed in and the Arab Gulf states were not ashamed of, and did not give in to all kinds of extortion and accusations that it abandoned its Arabism with this political thought. It is the policy of possible and standing on a solid land, although barren, a thousand times better than flying in the pink vacuum, and it will be lost.
His Excellency President Ahmed Al -Shara, we wish him and the beloved Syria all the best and success, and to be a model referred to in Lebanon.
