Syrian opposition denied reconciliation reports with the Assad regime in southern Daraa province, saying no bargain on the revolution principles.
Abu Mohamed Akhtaboot, General Coordinator of the National Front For Syria Liberation, refuted news by Russian media outlets over an imminent reconciliation in Daraa, once the Syrian revolution cradle.
Akhtaboot assured to Ammar Johmani that the opposition groups are abide by three basic demands before any negotiation process, unity of the Syrian land, ousting Bashar al-Assad and detainees release.
The US, Russia and Jordan reached a ceasefire and “de-escalation agreement” on July 9 in southwest Syria, covered Daraa province on the border with Jordan, nearby Suwayda, and Quneitra, which borders the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, with the aim of paving the way for a broader, more robust truce to end the six-year war.
With the help of Russian air power and Iran-backed militias, al-Assad has put rebels on the back foot over the last year.
Western-backed rebels control swaths of Daraa and Quneitra, which are home to tens of thousands of people and form a centre of the insurgency.
