Agreed, let the guy make improvements and write a good constitution with the supervision of international experts. People underestimate how long it takes to write a constitution from scratch. If you need only 350 laws and each law takes a day to be agreed on, it would take a year to write it
Just look at taiwan, they transitioned from a dictatoship to a democracy and theres wasn't any massive war or anything. He can take 6 or even 10 years if he wants, so long as a transfer into a democracy actually happens like it did woth taiwan.
Think of a country. Its infrastructure has been destroyed and a huge part of its population is scattered all over the world. Also war-weary and state organs are inoperable, social structure collapsed. You must provide electricity, water, repair roads, remove debris and show your people that they can return safely. You should re-establish the State almost from scratch and also make a brand new Constitution. There is also a need to take a census, renew land registry records and make the address system operational; again. ... If you go to an election without doing these, the results of that election will be open to manipulation and doubt. People will criticize you because one dictator left and a new one came. Four years is a very ambitious period to create a fair and legal election environment, I hope they succeed.
@@kaanyagzer8536 elections are NOT a problem in organising a state, providing water, electricity and services. Not at all. On the contrary, elections is part of the process, probably the most crucial step in placing the right people in the parliament that can deliver a constitution, a state, services, etc, etc. Frankly, an elected parliament is an important prerequisite for a national constitution free from external interference. The logic: first I will build the state, I will build the army as I see fit, THEN I will give you the elections is flowed at best… or insincere and misleading at worst.
@@AlGeoadis how you elect the parliament?? Based on what constitution?? The old corrupted one ?? Plus, whatever you are saying is right but not in Syria where 70% of people under poverty, millions of people are in tents in the winter, electricity comes 1 hour in 12 hours?? How people will survive?? How the industry will flourish... for syrians, the economic improvements are the priority.. we want to live like humans .. other things comes second.. try to understand the unique situation.. we appreciate positive support.
@ what you describe is essentially a country in war, basically Europe in 1946. Dozens of million of people dead, hundreds of millions displaced, an entire continent in ruins…. Transition to democracy was part of process that triggered de-nazification and reconstruction of Europe, not a consequence. As people say in my Anglophone village: you need to place the horse in front of the cart, not the other way around.
If elections happens now, they will win bcz everyone appreciate them at the moment. But don't have demographic information about citizenship or agreed upon constitution..
Honestly if people can get rid of Assad, the most protected regime and supported from Russian and Iran, they can get rid of any regime if they try to grab power
Nah, the west will just force them to give up the power and install their puppet through "elections".

Al Shaara is basically giving himself a full mandate. We'll wait and see. I think they should be given the benefit of the doubt, given the situation Syria is in, but the Syrian people have to keep their new government in check!
Let me tell you something, no one and especially the west and Israel, want Syria to be a democracy because that would ruin the image they have been crafting for decades about Arabs and middle east. Israel take pride of being the only democracy in the region (even though they're not), So they'll want to sabotage any attempts to create a true democracy in Syria
Four years might seem long, but after decades of Assad’s dictatorship, rebuilding democracy takes time. Fair elections need strong institutions, security, and inclusion for all Syrians-this isn’t a process to rush. 🕊
@@Jundullah-94 Accusing democracy of being shirk is a misunderstanding of Islam’s teachings about consultation (shura) and justice. Syria’s new government is working to empower the people and rebuild a nation free from oppression, aligning with values of fairness and accountability.

An ex Isis AND Al Qaida leader will probably be an exemple of a guy leading to democracy and inclusiveness. 😅 I think as long as he serves the interests of the US, Israel, Turkey, and the golf monarchies, he can take 20 years to have elections . The media will support him.
Why is the media talking about democracy and elections like in this video then? Why dont they just ignore this topic and talk about how great he will be?
Quite clever that countries first keep the sanctions to have some leverage till the constitution is written. I really hope for the Syrian people that they will have free elections.
Sanctions can't be lifted with a push of a button. It is like a contract that has an expiry date and if they want sanctions to continue they will renew it. We have to wait for the expiry date 😊
If that free expression of opinion is not suppressed too much by the interim regime then it is possible that in three or four years a genuine election takes place. Freedom of expression in print and other media will be the test.
This is somewhat alarming but recall, the US war of independence ended in 1781 and the constitution was not drafted until 1789 (let’s not talk about the articles of confederation)
It was Iran's fault. In a meeting between Russia, Iran, and Turkey, they (Iran in particular) promised Turkey that Assad will not retake the Idlib area, hence stopping the 2019-2020 offensive short. Assad's troops were explicitly discouraged from finishing the job. This gave Turkey's proxies a vital breathing space, rebuilding their strength for 4 years after the ceasefire. And the rest is history. You can say Turkey out played Iran.

Why does preparing elections take so long? Well, you've got put "trusted" people in all positions of government from the top to the bottom and then have society get used to the new dictatorship before you can trust the voters to tick the "right" box on the ballot

We still don't have full control over the whole Syrian land, security is top priority and it will take time. Then and only then we can start by electing a committee of experts to write the draft of the new constitution which will then lead to a vote for the new constitution etc...
Ahmad could have elections after the 3 months. and will get a swipping win, thier basically no one to ever get 1% of the votes. I think him giving 4 years duration, shows that he is honest, and sure that there is no body can come close to beat him even after that, which is true.
What is Karam Shaar Advisory?? 😂😂😂 never heard of that !! Is this your sources now?? From among all Syrians and activists you brought unknown person to voice his opinions as facts !!
DW: start talking to Syrians in Syria who suffered the most and paid the highest price. They have different priorities than these elitist activists outside Syria who’s only credentials are social media posts and tv interviews
A bad government would mean more suffering for the everyday people in Syria. And a dictatorship would mean more torture and executions. Politic matters, because politics is te way people shape the relationship in the society, which has impact on everybody.
Democracy needs a lot of preparation. In the USA, abolishing of slavery was on 1865, on 1870 (after 5 years), Prohibited denying the right to vote based on race, color, or previous servitude. Even then, it was far from being democratic society, so it is so early to push for democracy in Syria while the fabric of the society is still broken and there are still regions of syria where the law hasn't been established yet, such as the Kurdish controlled area, and sweida
the difference is if Syrians dont like Jolani they can easily take him down. Assad was different because Assad had Russian Army, Iran army, Hezbollah, Hamas and others. im not Syrian but i think Jolani is infinitely better than Assad just because he is weaker and can be easily taken down if Syrians wanted to
Syrians? Are you talking about the ordinary Syrians? In the Middle East the ordinary citizens never really had any power. They may make some little noise, but there is no power. Power is with the myriad groups. Or specifically, the unelected group leadership, and their foreign sponsors. Regime has changed in Syria because of the leadership of certain groups and their foreign backers. And not because of the ordinary citizens.
@vicmath1005 where do you think the rebels come from? they're all normal citizens that took up arms. Jolani and the rebels are weak they never had a chance on taking down Assad. but Russians had to leave and focus their forces on Ukraine, Iran's forces also left without fighting, Hezbollah and other Assad mercenary gangs left to fight Israel. that's the only time Jolani can take Assad down. Jolani and rebels don't have air force, missiles, bombs, and all sorts of advanced weaponry that the Assad forces had. Russia, Iran, Hezbollah are the only reason why Syrians cannot take down Assad which right now Jolani dont have.
There is a real possibility for Syria to be a new 21st Century model of how different religious and ethnic groups can create peaceful coexistence in the Levant. I am praying for this.
The current Syrian leaders could become heroes forever, if they ensured that Syria became a country with democratic rights. I wish for the Syrian people that they can become all heroes and Syria a role model!
Syria as always been a failed state. When the Ottoman Turk empire fell after World War I, this is portion that Turks and Saudi abandoned. So it will be somewhat dysfunctional. However, we can make it more stable and more non-violent.
Japan which is part of g7 and respected by Nato has to this day never had a woman as leader of central bank. But recently Syria has installed a woman as leader of central bank syria.
Syria has a,chance to be a model for Islam, the Middle East in general and inclusive for many within its borders, moderate and fair govenment for all with make Syria a standout natiion in the region.
we appreciate any kind of help and support, if it is out of good intentions, but we will not accept others to dictate on us what to do and how, so please stop interfering with our internal issues. When we needed you to interfere to stop the killing, murder and destruction, you made a lot of excuses of why it is hard to do so. Now after the fall of the criminal assad’s regime and now that we dont need your interference anymore, everyone starts to do so and to tell us how we should run our country! the new administration has our full support.
It played a part in Germany. Contrast the economic fates of West Germany and the DDR. Democracy wasn't the only factor in that that but it wasn't beside the point.
We don t need put over Syria the same ocidental values !!! Siria have your culture n he HTS goes to make a popular governement. They don t have change to election others leaders now n doesn t change in a ocidental country. Keep calm !! HTS need put a freedom n rights for all the Síria. This is important. And they r doing. It s so good 👏👏👏
This Julannee or Sharra guy is obviously still very green in strategy and practice of politics. The golden rule of politics is to shift any blame for whatever you want to do to others while taking credit for whatever goes right. If I was Julannee, and wanted to put off or even do away with elections altogether, I would have said, "we need to have elections as soon as practicable." Then, problem will continue to arise, and I will continue to insist that we should make it happen. Finally, I will say, "fine. let us give it a little more time." That way, I will get what I want and, at the same time, I will not get any blame for it.
Being a rebel is easy. But to lead a country with a myriad of problems, interest groups, power brokers, foreign backers etc etc is something else. But so far it appears that Syria will not go the Libya or Afghanistan way.
Trump's and MAGA's lies notwithstanding the US does still have free elections. There are some factors reducing how fair they are, and the electoral system is weird enough that outcomes get skewed. But, their elections are still free enough that if/when the population wants change they can get it through the ballot.
It’s going to take years, probably decades for Syria to fully recover from this nightmare. The children born today in Syria will still be dealing with the consequences of this conflict when they are ten years old. It’s not going to be easy to rebuild the country and it won’t happen overnight - but at least they will have genuine hope for the future, and at least they can speak their minds without fear of being put in a torture facility.
Syria has always been a "failed state". Syria is potion of the Ottoman Empire when it fell that the Turks and the Saudi "DID NOT WANT AND ABANDONED". That why the new leader he seems to know his history. To make Syria work he going to need a lot of help including from the United States. We will see what happens.
I agree with the consolidation of essential powers like the military and security forces given how failed the Syrian state has become and to prevent instability. Priority for Syrians is security and safety and that can only be achieved by a strong central government
The Syrian state has always been a failed state. A little history when the Ottoman Empire fell after World War I, Syria is portion that the Turks and Saudi abandoned. Syria, Lebanon, and Israel are lands that have some of worse geographies even dating back to the Roman Empire. Only reason why nations conquered this area was because it was part of the "silk road". After the Portuguese developed "deep water navigation" in the 14th century, and cut them out as being the middle men this area of world become one of the poorest on earth.
It is only tolerant towards some cultures. DW and German govt is prime example. I can find dozens of racist propagandist news videos on DW. And many instances of hypocrisy demonstrated by German govt.
DW just deleted my comment that called out your lie. Germany doesn't even believe in freedom to respond and you think you're a tolerant democracy? What a joke.
I imagine it would or should take 10 or 20 years allowing time to teach political reasoning and about the pitfalls of electing populists and sociopaths . If they don’t they’ll end up like Russia again or forthcoming Republican regime in the US.
When India was made a colony of racist Western countries, when India got freedom India to take 2 years at 11 months 18 days to made its constitutions.. but you Western countries racist or expecting to change everything overnight

Then and only then we can start by electing a committee of experts to write the draft of the new constitution which will then lead to a vote for the new constitution etc...
Like how Assad did in 50 years.
It will be free and fair if they vote for Ahmed al-Sharaa.
Ahmad could have elections after the 3 months. and will get a swipping win, thier basically no one to ever get 1% of the votes.
I think him giving 4 years duration, shows that he is honest, and sure that there is no body can come close to beat him even after that, which is true.
And, they will ban opponent like Sisi & Assad did...
What if they ban Srcular while I am hold my faith of principles?
Probably one state elections
What is Karam Shaar Advisory?? 😂😂😂 never heard of that !! Is this your sources now?? From among all Syrians and activists you brought unknown person to voice his opinions as facts !!
Free and fair elections.😂
Free elections and Islam, ho ho ho 😂
that's certainly not your concern
God bless Syrian ppl..... they have been through very difficult times
DW: start talking to Syrians in Syria who suffered the most and paid the highest price. They have different priorities than these elitist activists outside Syria who’s only credentials are social media posts and tv interviews
A bad government would mean more suffering for the everyday people in Syria. And a dictatorship would mean more torture and executions. Politic matters, because politics is te way people shape the relationship in the society, which has impact on everybody.
Democracy needs a lot of preparation. In the USA, abolishing of slavery was on 1865, on 1870 (after 5 years), Prohibited denying the right to vote based on race, color, or previous servitude. Even then, it was far from being democratic society, so it is so early to push for democracy in Syria while the fabric of the society is still broken and there are still regions of syria where the law hasn't been established yet, such as the Kurdish controlled area, and sweida
Man in a suit mut be trustworthy.
It will be like afghanistan
Afganistan is a tribal society
Syria is 53% urban
india is 30% urban
Shouldn't there be election for constituent assembly a body which makes constitution
Just asking because this happened in india
They going stabilize the country first. There still elements that are heavily armed and it wild west out there.
Any country surviving west incited Arab spring 😂
Fair and free 😂
the difference is if Syrians dont like Jolani they can easily take him down. Assad was different because Assad had Russian Army, Iran army, Hezbollah, Hamas and others. im not Syrian but i think Jolani is infinitely better than Assad just because he is weaker and can be easily taken down if Syrians wanted to
Syrians? Are you talking about the ordinary Syrians?
In the Middle East the ordinary citizens never really had any power. They may make some little noise, but there is no power.
Power is with the myriad groups. Or specifically, the unelected group leadership, and their foreign sponsors.
Regime has changed in Syria because of the leadership of certain groups and their foreign backers. And not because of the ordinary citizens.
@vicmath1005 where do you think the rebels come from? they're all normal citizens that took up arms. Jolani and the rebels are weak they never had a chance on taking down Assad. but Russians had to leave and focus their forces on Ukraine, Iran's forces also left without fighting, Hezbollah and other Assad mercenary gangs left to fight Israel. that's the only time Jolani can take Assad down. Jolani and rebels don't have air force, missiles, bombs, and all sorts of advanced weaponry that the Assad forces had. Russia, Iran, Hezbollah are the only reason why Syrians cannot take down Assad which right now Jolani dont have.
I really hope that the Syrian people get a chance of legitimate and inclusive democracy
No
There is a real possibility for Syria to be a new 21st Century model of how different religious and ethnic groups can create peaceful coexistence in the Levant. I am praying for this.
The current Syrian leaders could become heroes forever, if they ensured that Syria became a country with democratic rights. I wish for the Syrian people that they can become all heroes and Syria a role model!
Syria as always been a failed state. When the Ottoman Turk empire fell after World War I, this is portion that Turks and Saudi abandoned. So it will be somewhat dysfunctional. However, we can make it more stable and more non-violent.
Japan which is part of g7 and respected by Nato has to this day never had a woman as leader of central bank. But recently Syria has installed a woman as leader of central bank syria.
Society and radical groups need to adjust to being in a free and prosperous country and that takes years.
None of your damn business.
Four years is needed.
Syria has a,chance to be a model for Islam, the Middle East in general and inclusive for many within its borders, moderate and fair govenment for all with make Syria a standout natiion in the region.
Indonesia need 10 years from it's independence for election
Do the Kurds have an organized election in place?
we appreciate any kind of help and support, if it is out of good intentions, but we will not accept others to dictate on us what to do and how, so please stop interfering with our internal issues. When we needed you to interfere to stop the killing, murder and destruction, you made a lot of excuses of why it is hard to do so. Now after the fall of the criminal assad’s regime and now that we dont need your interference anymore, everyone starts to do so and to tell us how we should run our country! the new administration has our full support.
I really hope it wont end up like iran
Taliban is in charge in Damascus.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mark my words
Syria will be another Afghanistan in future like Taliban ruling their people ..
30 seconds of information. 9 minutes of comments by so-called “experts”
What they said was very informative and reasonable.
Expert is worth listening to
Keep listening to countries in the west Syria may go to a deeper hold
Sure, without russian interference. They are too busy losing the war in Ukraine.
when was your last trip to russia, ukraine or syria?
@@nothingness863 We have internet and TV, Ivan Trollski, so I don't see your point.
You should mention without US interference too.
@@hadifjamalluddin3319US "interference" did not give Syria decades of Assad dictatorship. Facts speak for themselves, Ivanushka Durachok. 🇺🇸 🇸🇾 🇪🇺
they have smaller borders now lol
Very good new leader we hope the continuesly peace 8n the country
As if democracy will cause the rose to bloom and water to flow😮
It played a part in Germany. Contrast the economic fates of West Germany and the DDR. Democracy wasn't the only factor in that that but it wasn't beside the point.
We don t need put over Syria the same ocidental values !!! Siria have your culture n he HTS goes to make a popular governement. They don t have change to election others leaders now n doesn t change in a ocidental country. Keep calm !! HTS need put a freedom n rights for all the Síria. This is important. And they r doing. It s so good 👏👏👏
We have media problem all around the world, lol
😂😂😂😂👎💩
Vote with one hand🎉🎉😂😂😂
🇧🇩❤🇹🇷❤🇵🇸
Allah knows
You think yourself
We trust Jolani
This Julannee or Sharra guy is obviously still very green in strategy and practice of politics. The golden rule of politics is to shift any blame for whatever you want to do to others while taking credit for whatever goes right. If I was Julannee, and wanted to put off or even do away with elections altogether, I would have said, "we need to have elections as soon as practicable." Then, problem will continue to arise, and I will continue to insist that we should make it happen. Finally, I will say, "fine. let us give it a little more time." That way, I will get what I want and, at the same time, I will not get any blame for it.
Being a rebel is easy.
But to lead a country with a myriad of problems, interest groups, power brokers, foreign backers etc etc is something else.
But so far it appears that Syria will not go the Libya or Afghanistan way.
Hahahahahahahaha
Cut your beard if u wan ppls to believe your bs
Hey, his beard looks sick.
Just say you cant grow a beard
If you're not steak holder, then it's not ur business.
Russians bots are crying
Do US have free and fair election🤣🤣🤣
Trump's and MAGA's lies notwithstanding the US does still have free elections. There are some factors reducing how fair they are, and the electoral system is weird enough that outcomes get skewed. But, their elections are still free enough that if/when the population wants change they can get it through the ballot.
It’s going to take years, probably decades for Syria to fully recover from this nightmare. The children born today in Syria will still be dealing with the consequences of this conflict when they are ten years old. It’s not going to be easy to rebuild the country and it won’t happen overnight - but at least they will have genuine hope for the future, and at least they can speak their minds without fear of being put in a torture facility.
Syria has always been a "failed state". Syria is potion of the Ottoman Empire when it fell that the Turks and the Saudi "DID NOT WANT AND ABANDONED". That why the new leader he seems to know his history. To make Syria work he going to need a lot of help including from the United States. We will see what happens.
LMAO
You want Assad back, huh, Ivan Trollski? Why don't you ask piewtin to send him back? 😆 🤣 😂
Assad loyalist?
Alawite is crying
@@juanzocool574 lmao means laughing
I agree with the consolidation of essential powers like the military and security forces given how failed the Syrian state has become and to prevent instability.
Priority for Syrians is security and safety and that can only be achieved by a strong central government
The Syrian state has always been a failed state. A little history when the Ottoman Empire fell after World War I, Syria is portion that the Turks and Saudi abandoned. Syria, Lebanon, and Israel are lands that have some of worse geographies even dating back to the Roman Empire. Only reason why nations conquered this area was because it was part of the "silk road". After the Portuguese developed "deep water navigation" in the 14th century, and cut them out as being the middle men this area of world become one of the poorest on earth.
Does racist germany have fair elections
Germany isn't racist. It's one of the most open and tolerant countries in the world.
It is only tolerant towards some cultures. DW and German govt is prime example. I can find dozens of racist propagandist news videos on DW. And many instances of hypocrisy demonstrated by German govt.
DW just deleted my comment that called out your lie. Germany doesn't even believe in freedom to respond and you think you're a tolerant democracy? What a joke.
@@DommTom Too tolerant.
I imagine it would or should take 10 or 20 years allowing time to teach political reasoning and about the pitfalls of electing populists and sociopaths . If they don’t they’ll end up like Russia again or forthcoming Republican regime in the US.
Yes
😂
What are you expecting. Remember that's it took years after WW2 to rebuild Germany and get a new constitution in place. Give them a chance!
When India was made a colony of racist Western countries, when India got freedom India to take 2 years at 11 months 18 days to made its constitutions.. but you Western countries racist or expecting to change everything overnight
