In statements to the Al-Arabiya channel, Olabi stressed that the responsibility for this agreement rests primarily with the Israeli government, while emphasizing the continued talks ogue with the United States as part of the process.

According to the diplomat, the situation in the southern Syrian province of Sweida has also been included as a topic of discussion with Washington.

The permanent representative to the UN also indicated that the talks held by Syrian President Ahmad Al-Sharaa with his counterparts from the United States, Donald Trump, and France, Emmanuel Macron, were “fruitful” and contribute to consolidating current diplomatic efforts.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office recently confirmed that negotiations with Syria are underway, fueling speculation about the possibility of an agreement similar to the one signed in 1974.

Sources cited by Reuters indicated that the eventual understanding includes conditions such as the demilitarization of southwestern Syria and security guarantees for the Druze community, which Tel Aviv has demanded as central elements.

The United States special envoy for Syria, Tom Barrack, recently revealed that Syria and Israel are close to reaching a de-escalation agreement that would end Israeli attacks on Syrian territory.
