All signs point to HTS's commitment to executing its publicly stated goal of ending suffering and forging a new path to peace and security, which the Syrian people desperately long for. Syrian rebel leader Abu Mohammed al-Julani faces immense challenges as he attempts to consolidate power with other rebel groups and address key issues in order to resurrect Syria from the ashes left behind by the Assad regime. These challenges include healing the nation, establishing an inclusive political system, promoting socio-economic equality, and barring foreign troops. The new government must collaborate with the US, the EU, the Arab states, and Israel to achieve regional stability and security.
