The US is ready to recognize the Syrian government if certain principles are met
The US administration is ready to recognize and support the new Syrian government if it is developed on the basis of inclusiveness and without external interference, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Tuesday.
"All countries should pledge to support an inclusive and transparent process and refrain from interference," the head of the State Department said in a statement.
"The United States will recognize and fully support the future Syrian government that will be established as a result of this process," Blinken stressed.
He added that "the transition period must lead to credible, inclusive, and secular governance that meets international standards of transparency and accountability."
Last week, the armed opposition in Syria announced that it had captured Damascus and was developing transitional authority.
Earlier on Tuesday, it was reported that Mohammed Bashir, who previously headed the so-called government of national salvation, was entrusted with establishing the interim Syrian government. He is an engineer and has a religious education as well.
