🇺🇸🇧🇦 - Visibly hurt by the lack of U.S. support, Dodik responded to Rubio:

We take note and take seriously the statement by Secretary Rubio. It would seem that the State Department is still in the nation-building business. It is difficult to understand how this is part of the new anti-globalist and America First policies advocated by President Trump.

🇸🇾 - #BREAKING Initial reports say the SDF Kurdish majority forces have agreed to integrate into the national security forces.

🇸🇾 - Admin's hot take and questions regarding this agreement.

The timing of this agreement is not surprising and has been very well calculated. The massacres in Latakia and Tartus by HTS-affiliated elements were the first major setback for al-Sharaa and his administration. They clearly showed that control was far from being established, and that unity too. Today, with this announcement, Jolani can boast of having taken a step forward towards unity. The massacres are inexcusable, but this agreement is a victory, and when that happens, we must also highlight it, without forgetting what happened.

- To what extent is the SDF integrated into the Syrian Arab Republic?
- Will the U.S. continue to help the SDF now that it is less independent and associated with a government classified as terrorist?
- What will be the effects on Kurdish independence/autonomist claims in general?
- Will the SDF be deployed anywhere other than their historic lands in the northeast?
- Impact on Turkey's policies regarding Syria?
