U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken revealed that the United States has had direct contact with Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a Syrian rebel group formerly linked to al-Qaeda, which played a significant role in the efforts to topple Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. This disclosure came during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing where Blinken was addressing U.S. policy in Syria. He emphasized that while the U.S. does not support HTS, communication is necessary to manage the complex dynamics of the Syrian conflict, particularly in areas where HTS holds influence. This engagement is part of broader U.S. efforts to stabilize regions in Syria, combat ISIS, and address humanitarian issues amidst ongoing conflict and political instability.
