Syria's interim President, Ahmed Sharaa, is facing significant challenges as he attempts to unify the war-torn country, following recent mass killings of members from the minority sect of ousted President Bashar al-Assad. In an exclusive interview, Sharaa promised accountability for the violence, even if it implicates his own political allies.

During the conversation, Sharaa blamed the pro-Assad groups and foreign influences for the bloodshed, highlighting the need for legal action against wrongdoers. The interview also shed light on his administration's strained relations with the United States and its efforts to restore ties with Moscow, while confronting domestic uprising and territorial disputes.

As Syria grapples with economic difficulties and international sanctions, Sharaa's leadership is heavily scrutinized. He navigates the complex landscape of regional geopolitics, including tensions with Israel and intra-state conflicts, aiming for reconciliation and stability among Syria's numerous ethnic and religious communities.
