ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - Institutions in the Kurdish-led northeast of Syria (Rojava) will remain in place but come under the supervision of relevant Syrian ministries following the expected finalization of a landmark agreement between Damascus and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), a senior government official said.
"Currently, there is a central committee formed by the Presidency of the Syrian Arab Republic that is in communication to finalize the agreement between the president of the republic, Ahmad al-Sharaa, and [SDF] chief Mazloum Abdi," Ahmad Suleiman, public relations manager at the Syrian energy ministry, told Rudaw on Thursday.
He noted that the existing institutions in Rojava “will remain as they are,” but oversight will be transferred to the appropriate federal ministries.
“There will be committees from the Energy Ministry and other ministries to take over the institutions and all matters relevant to each ministry,” he said.
On March 10, Sharaa and Abdi signed an agreement that outlines steps to integrate Rojava’s civil and military institutions into the federal administration.
In early April, the SDF and Damascus reached a separate agreement that included a prisoner swap and laid the foundation for joint security oversight in Kurdish-majority neighborhoods of Aleppo previously held by the People’s Protection Units (YPG), the backbone of the SDF.
