Audio from a webinar convened in June of 2021 by the International Action Center (IAC): iacenter.org
On May 26, 2021,14 million Syrians voted in a Presidential election, overwhelmingly reelecting President Bashar al-Assad. An independent, international delegation of observers called the election "the legitimate, democratic expression of the Syrian people," and noted that "for many Syrians, the election represents the imminent ending of the war, the defeat of foreign plots, and hope for the future."
Join 4 participants from the delegation for an eyewitness account of the situation in Syria as the country continues to push back U.S. intervention, reassert its sovereignty, and rebuild after years of imperialist war.
Hosted by Scott Williams International Action Center, Participant in 2014 Delegation to Syria
Panelists:
Johnny Achi, E.E. Co-founder, Arab Americans for Syria
Kobi Guillory Co-Chair, Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression
Wyatt Miller Minnesota Anti-War Committee
Ted Kelly International Action Center Co-Editor, Tear Down the Walls!
