Kurdish National Congress can only prevent civil war: Salih Muslim

The co- leader of Syrian Pro- Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD), Salih Muslim, said the upcoming Kurds National Congress cannot decide on the announcement of an independent country, but can only prevent civil war.

“The upcoming Kurds National Congress cannot decide on the announcement of an independent country but can only prevent civil war,” Muslim told Radio Nawkhu on Friday.

Muslim further said the congress could play a role as that of the Arab League, and the Islam Scholars’ League which are held over specific issues such as the economics. Muslim underlined the importance of the congress is because of the presence of all Kurdish delegates in Kurdish regions. The congress is due to be held on August 24. Four preparatory meetings have already held to make grounds for the congress.
