What is the Peace and Freedom Front? 

On July 28th, 2020, four Syrian entities announced the formation of the Peace and Freedom Front in eastern Syria.

At the time, the political alliance included the Kurdish National Council, the Syrian Tomorrow Movement, the Assyrian Democratic Organization, and the Arab Council in al-Jazeera and the Euphrates. 

“The Peace and Freedom Front is a framework for a political alliance between several Syrian political forces, which are seeking to build a pluralistic, decentralized democratic system.  A system that preserves the dignity and freedom of Syrians; where terrorism, extremism, and exclusion have no place. They work following the principles and objectives that are included in the political vision,” according to the statement.

“The Peace and Freedom Front supports a political solution in Syria, per resolutions of international legitimacy, the most important of which is Security Council Resolution 2254 and the Geneva Statement 1,” the statement said. The statement also added, “the front is open to dialogue and joint action with the Syrian opposition.”
