Saudi Arabia has welcomed a ceasefire agreement and the integration of the YPG terror group into all civilian and military institutions of the Syrian state, according to the Foreign Ministry.
In a statement reported by the Saudi Press Agency on Monday, the ministry said: “The kingdom welcomes the ceasefire agreement and the integration of the YPG, with all their civilian and military institutions, into the Syrian state.”
The ministry also “praised” the efforts made by the US in reaching the agreement, the agency added.
The statement noted: “We hope the agreement will help strengthen security and stability, build state institutions and apply the rule of law in a way that fulfills the aspirations of the Syrian people for development and prosperity,” the agency continued.
The kingdom reaffirmed its full support for efforts by the Syrian government to enhance civil peace and preserve Syria’s sovereignty and territorial unity, the statement added.
On Sunday evening, Syrian President Ahmed al Sharaa announced a ceasefire and an agreement for the full integration of the terrorist PKK-linked YPG into state institutions.
The announcement followed a military operation launched by the Syrian Army, through which it regained wide areas in eastern and northeastern Syria after repeated violations by the YPG of earlier agreements signed with Damascus nearly a year ago.
