Right after Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham terrorists in Syria massacred nearly 1,000 civilians in Daesh-style executions, the European Commission said an invitation had been sent to HTS’s foreign minister for the 9th Brussels Conference on Syria.

European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas stated, “We are prepared to re-impose sanctions on Syria if we see any deterioration. The transition in Syria must be peaceful and inclusive, and civilians must be protected under all circumstances.”

The member bodies of the EU need urgent upgrades on the genocide convention and the definition of human rights violations.

Their understanding of a peaceful transition collides massively with the reality on the ground.

By the way, it is the Western powers, including the EU that ostracises and demonises Russia’s Putin, who has provided shelter for over 7000 Alawites and Christians persecuted by the HTS terrorists.

They call the President of Russia a dictator while supporting a real-time jihadist who is a proscribed terrorist and a member of Al Qaeda.

The self-proclaimed president of Syria, Jolani, enjoys acknowledgement, sanction wavers, and his name being removed from the terrorist list by the West.

Jolani’s Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham terrorists murdered over 1000 Alawite civilians in Syria, and the self-proclaimed wannabe president insists that the field executions are isolated cases.

These are standard phrases produced and implemented exclusively by the West, including the Zionist enemy.

Jolani of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham is just a cheap copy-cat, and his demeanour is solely “learned behaviour,” exemplified by the leaders of Western nations.

A wave of kidnappings in Syria under the Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) rule has reportedly caused residents to fear leaving their homes after dark.

According to the New York Times, people are demanding more policemen in the streets, but their number is not enough as the ruling regime has dismissed all officers and security officials of the former government of Bashar al-Assad.

“Sectarian tensions, opportunistic crime and desire for revenge have converged amid a security vacuum that has left many Syrians afraid to go out at night,” the report said.

The groups monitoring events in Syria have reported at least a dozen abductions in the Arab country over the past three months, it added.

“The security situation is compounded by other problems, like a severe electricity shortage that leaves some neighborhoods dark at night. In several cities, residents say they have installed metal doors to protect against thieves, and some parents have stopped sending their children to school.”

The self-proclaimed president of Syria, Abu Mohammad al-Julani, has pinned the blame for kidnappings on the Assad government.

“Today there is security, though there are small incidents here and there,” he claimed during a recent interview with Syria TV, adding that decades of “bad policies can’t be undone in a matter of days or weeks.”

Many of those abducted come from Syria’s Druze, Christians, and Alawite religious minorities.

The report documented the case of Sami al-Izoo, who witnessed the kidnapping of his 60-year-old brother, Abdulrazaq.

The kidnappers asked Sami to pay a ransom of $400,000, an impossible sum for him to raise.

Sami, from the town of Talbiseh, said that he had repeatedly asked local forces for help, but they had taken no action.

In another case, the Shadood brothers, Amjad, 25, and Mohammad, 26, from the Alawite religious minority, were abducted while walking home at night from their restaurant jobs.

The kidnappers never contacted the family of the abductees, whose bodies were found by the side of a highway in a neighboring province about a week later.
