Syrian rebel leader calls for sanctions to be lifted | BBC News

The de facto leader of Syria, Ahmed al-Sharaa, has said the country is exhausted by war and is not a threat to its neighbours or to the West. In an interview with the BBC in Damascus he called for sanctions on Syria to be lifted, saying “the victim and the oppressor should not be treated in the same way.” Sharaa led the lightning offensive that toppled Bashar al-Assad's regime less than two weeks ago. The actions of Syria's new rulers in the next few months will indicate the kind of country they want Syria to be - and the way they want to rule it.
