I spoke about the Syrian revolution with a belief that has never left me: continuing matters. Even in the hardest moments, there is light at the end of the tunnel, and choosing to keep going is an act of faith in a better future.

صدر اليوم كتابي عن العدالة الانتقالية عن دار الفكر بدمشق، سعيد بأن يكون اول كتاب صدر لي في سورية بعد التحرير حيث عادت سورية مكانا للعلم والثقافة والتفكير والإبداع والنشر، وايضاً سعيد بانه يركز على مفهوم العدالة الانتقالية حيث الحاجة السورية اليوم إلى مسار جاد وحقيقي للعدالة يتعامل مع الماضي الأليم ويضمن الحقوق للضحايا ويفتح الباب امام المصالحة الوطنية الشاملة الحقيقية #سورية

Trump and Sharaa in Oval Office: Unthinkable a Year Ago!

In this episode of The Timeline, hosts Abdülhamit Bilici and Jesse Waters sit down with Radwan Ziadeh, one of the most respected Syria analysts, to unpack the political, geopolitical, and humanitarian stakes. Syria is entering a pivotal moment. After more than 13 years of civil war, the country faces a historic turning point following interim President Ahmad Al Sharaa’s visit to the White House — the first high-level meeting of its kind in 79 years. What does this moment signal for the Syrian people and the wider region?

▶️ How did Al Sharaa transform from a designated terrorist to a welcomed guest in the Oval Office within one year?
▶️ What is Syria’s current situation after Assad’s fall in December 2024?
▶️ How do key actors view the transition process, and what kind of regime do they envision?
▶️ What is Ahmad Al Sharaa’s approach to democracy — and why is he avoiding the term?
▶️ Where do the Alawites, Kurds, and Druze stand on the future political order?
▶️ How are the United States, Iran, Russia, Turkey, Israel, and the Gulf states positioning themselves?
