Syria's president signs deal with Kurdish-led SDF

The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, which controls much of Syria's oil-rich northeast, signed a deal with the Damascus government on Monday to join Syria's new state institutions, the Syrian presidency said on Monday.

This was reported by the "Reuters".

Photos showed interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa and SDF commander Mazloum Abdi shaking hands in Damascus on the agreement that provides for SDF-controlled civilian and military institutions in northeast Syria to be integrated with the state.

The agreement signed on Monday calls for SDF-controlled border crossings, an airport and oil and gas fields in eastern Syria to become part of the Damascus administration.

He said the SDF was working together with the Syrian administration at "such a critical period" to guarantee a transitional phase that reflects the aspirations of the Syrian people for justice and stability.

Implementation is due by the end of the year, but the accord does not specify how SDF's military operation will be integrated into Syria's defence ministry, a major sticking point in talks thus far.
