The US-backed Kurdish Autonomous Administration, which controls large areas in northern and northeastern Syria, has expressed its willingness to meet with the Syrian government with the aim of reaching a solution to the crisis in the country, according to a statement released today by the administration.

The move comes after most Arab countries restored ties with Damascus, or are on the way, after over a decade of severed relations.

The increasing tensions between the US and some of its allies in the Middle East, most significantly Saudi Arabia, and Riyadh's restoration of ties with Iran after Beijing's mediation, were also major geopolitical shifts that took place in just a few months and impacted the region's conventional status quo ties.

"We affirm our readiness to meet with the Syrian government and hold talks with it and with all the Syrian parties, in order to consult and discuss to present initiatives and find a solution to the Syrian crisis," the Kurdish administration said.

The statement appealed to Arab countries, the United Nations, and all international organizations and countries with influence in Syria, to "play a positive and effective role that contributes to the search for a common solution with the Syrian government."

While illegitimately controlled areas under the Kurdish group include Syria's richest areas in energy resources, they called for a "fair distribution of wealth and economic resources among the Syrian regions, including oil and gas fields." 

"We stress once again the need to share these resources through agreement with the Syrian government through dialogue and negotiation."

The Autonomous Administration affirmed its adherence to "Syrian territorial integrity," and stressed the importance of "establishing a pluralistic, decentralized, democratic, political administrative system that preserves the rights of all citizens with no exceptions." 

Since 2018, the Autonomous Administration has engaged in several rounds of talks with Damascus, without achieving any results.
