The US will not normalize relations with Syria, said Brett McGurk, Middle East and North Africa coordinator for the US National Security Council.
According to Middleeasteye, McGurk took stock of the Syrian issue in an online meeting with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
“We are not in favor of normalizing relations with the Assad regime,” McGurk said.
McGurk did not specify whether U.S. allies were trying to thwart efforts to repair relations with Assad, saying that, according to McGurk, countries were "trying to protect their interests."
