Syrian rebel leader speaks out: West has nothing to fear from new regime

The leader of the armed Syrian rebel group that toppled the Assad regime after four decades of rule has told Sky News that Western countries have nothing to fear from his victory.

Abu Mohammad al Jolani, who now asks to be called by his birth name Ahmed al Sharaa, told Sky News that his group does not seek further conflict and will bring stability to Syria.

In an impromptu visit to the mosque he attended as a young man on the outskirts of Damascus, he said people were “tired” from years of war. He was flanked by several armed men and cheered by dozens of young supporters posing for selfies.

Inside the Imam al Shafi'i mosque in the Mezzeh neighborhood, he spoke briefly about how Syria had been destroyed by the corruption and greed of the Assad family. He praised the efforts of his fighters, who, he said, took over Syria without any foreign support or interference.

The HTS leader is a former member of the Islamic State of Iraq and led the group's al-Qaeda affiliate in Syria before cutting ties in 2016. Jolani remains a U.S.-designated terrorist, but he has spent years trying to distance himself from his former ties to al-Qaeda. He says he has renounced his extremist past and now embraces pluralism and tolerance.

His group's rapid spread across Syria has also raised fears among other minorities in the country, including Kurds, Alawites and Christians. But Sharaa dismissed those concerns, saying: "The source of our fear was from the Iranian militias, Hezbollah and the regime that carried out the massacres that we are seeing today. So their removal is the solution for Syria."

Abu Mohammed al Jolani, the leader of the rebel group Hayat Tahrir al Sham (HTS), gives his first comments to a Western news organization since the fall of the Assad regime.

Ahmed al-Sharaa, also known as Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, tried to reassure foreign countries by promising to rebuild Syria.

"Their fear is unnecessary. The fear was from the presence of the Assad regime. The country is moving forward with development and reconstruction. It is moving forward with stability," he said.

There have been discussions about whether Western countries will remove the terrorist label from Jolan and his HTS group following the events in Syria.
