Years ago, Ahmed Shara, who fought against the US in Iraq, took the lead of HTS in Syria and had a $10 million bounty on his head, spoke at the UN General Assembly in New York this time as the President of Syria.
Shara emphasized his country's independence and will at the podium, clearly stating the "breaking of the chains on Syria's wrists."
"HE WROTE SYRIA'S STORY WITH HIS OWN PEN"
The striking detail about the speech was revealed by Syrian Foreign Minister Assad Hasan Sheybani. Sheybani shared a photo taken before the speech and stated:
"The entire Foreign Ministry team had prepared, but the President insisted on writing Syria's story with his own pen."
SHARA: ALL SANCTIONS MUST BE LIFTED
Shara, the first Syrian leader to speak from the UN podium in 58 years, stated, "The previous regime killed 1 million innocents. They displaced millions from their homes. They destroyed 2 million houses. They attacked unarmed innocent people with chemical weapons. They massacred women and children. They tried to silence the truth by killing innocent civilians with poisonous gases. We fought not out of a sense of revenge; we fought for justice."
Syrian President Shara thanked the countries that supported them, especially Turkey.
The Syrian President reminded of the non-aggression agreement signed with Israel in 1974. Emphasizing their commitment to the agreement, Ahmed Shara said, "In this regard, we hope the international community will stand with us."
Shara called for the lifting of sanctions imposed on Syria, stating, "The shackles on our feet must be removed."
Shara, who said, "Since the old regime fell, we have had a very clear strategic policy," added, "These are security, diplomacy, and economic development. We are now establishing all institutions for legislation. We are re-establishing our international relations. We have worked hard for the lifting of sanctions. The shackles on our feet must be removed. We want all sanctions lifted."
