An Iraqi Kurdish leader has travelled to Damascus for discussions regarding the integration of Syrian Kurdish institutions and forces into the post-Assad Syrian state. The visit follows armed clashes that occurred between Syrian Kurdish fighters and the new authorities' forces in January of this year, after which both sides previously reached a preliminary deal.

During the meetings in the Syrian capital, the Iraqi Kurdish regional leader met with Syrian President al-Sharaa. The talks focus specifically on advancing the integration of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and securing Kurdish rights within the changing political landscape of post-Assad Syria.
