Syrian President Ahmed al Sharaa has ruled out joining the Abraham Accords, insisting that his country’s conflict with Israel is fundamentally different from that of other Arab states. In remarks published by Saudi magazine Al-Majalla, al Sharaa said Syria’s approach is based on “zero problems” with neighbours, but stressed that normalisation with Israel is not on the table. “The accords were signed with states that had no occupied land or direct conflicts with Israel. Syria’s situation is different; we have the Golan Heights under occupation,” he said.
