Turkey's ruling AK Party has welcomed the dissolution of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), viewing the move as a crucial step toward strengthening state authority and achieving lasting stability in Syria. Ankara has pledged to assist Damascus in rebuilding the country, as well as restructuring its state institutions and armed forces, building on the political and diplomatic support it has already provided.
