Kurdish leader Farhad Shami posted on his X account: “The Kurds do not need a birth certificate from those who are ignorant of history or who read it selectively. Their presence in this region is a firmly established historical fact, and their role in its present and future cannot be measured by assumptions or fabricated narratives.” The statements made by the presidential envoy, Ahmed Hilali, reflect a narrow and exclusionary vision that demonstrates neither historical awareness nor a sense of patriotism, and does not contribute to building a comprehensive national discourse.

What is needed today is not to reinvent or falsify history, but rather to work on building a cohesive Syrian entity that includes all its people on the basis of genuine belonging to the region and shared citizenship, just as the Kurds were in the process of building modern Syria from its beginnings, up to their active participation in fighting all forces of evil, such as ISIS and its affiliates.

As for the discourse based on questioning the authentic components of the region's fabric, it is a racist discourse that does not serve any real national project, and only leads to weakening the national fabric instead of protecting it.
