00:00:07Anything that helps research on this them live a dignified life and obtain
00:00:10their rights, this is what we believe. This is a legitimate right for them before it is a
00:00:14human right or a societal right. However,
00:00:17the issue is, I say I am in favor, but
00:00:21this project must be looked at from
00:00:24more than one dimension. We have the security dimension, for example,
00:00:27consider the our brother Professor Muslim
00:00:31certificates and did not receive said that citizenship should be granted, and this is an opinion I respect. I am now speaking
00:00:33my opinion as a member of the
00:00:36someone from People's Assembly. When the
00:00:38This may relieve law is given to us, we will definitely discuss it as I am speaking now, and perhaps
00:00:41now I will hear from one of the esteemed guests a point
00:00:44that will change my conviction. Perhaps I am now talking about a point
00:00:47that will change the conviction of others. The security dimension is very important. For example, it is
00:00:52his father was from obtain not reasonable for a Syrian wife married to a militia leader
00:00:55citizenship if this who killed many Syrians. This is also a
00:00:58humanitarian dimension. How can I give them a reward
00:01:02with Syrian citizenship, even though
00:01:05he killed Syrian people? Then I will make this number of children
00:01:09a source of influence or a point or a
00:01:12mine. I don't know how it will work. So there must be a
00:01:15social dimension, which is the easiest. You have the
00:01:18legal dimension. I say legally, there is no objection
00:01:22from the broad legal ruling. There is no objection to
00:01:25granting citizenship to children.
00:01:30Syrian citizenship because it is practically an administrative decision.
00:01:34Islamophobia. No, we need to be a little far from this There may be some conflicting details, and this therefore contradicts the
00:01:37But brother, there are changes in Syria on constitutional declaration. So we are, I am in favor in general, as a broad line, I am
00:01:40in favor, but there must be restrictions and some precautions,
00:01:44as Dr.
00:01:46are your fears that stop only at Kinda mentioned, the issue of security approval or I don't remember
00:01:48who, there are some approvals that must be in place. The time is
00:01:51open. The project may be presented now and take its time for study
00:01:55and take a year or two until
00:01:58Thank you. Actually, this it matures and then a law is issued.
00:02:08It should be easy. I mean, now when we hear the statement, we think that next Sunday
00:02:11we have a session or this legislative session will be decided. We don't
00:02:15know the time. It needs discussion. It's not that
00:02:19easy. Okay, Dr. Kinda, do you have a comment? It seems, if
00:02:22you please. Yes, because I have the right to respond to
00:02:25a remark by one of the esteemed attendees when he said that
00:02:29the child must be, and this deprives him of his right. Because I did not complete
00:02:33my answer, because there is also a second part of the proposed solutions or the vision
00:02:36of solutions by one of the participants, and I prefer to say it
00:02:40quickly, as usual. For example, I did not say this
00:02:44is the child's right. There is a difference between granting random naturalization,
00:02:47as he said, this mine, random naturalization without even
00:02:51security approval, as one of the guests mentioned. Even in stable
00:02:54countries like Canada and America, you need clearance and security,
00:02:58and you go to the FBI and you go to, and these are stable countries
00:03:01and they have amazing data systems. So how
00:03:05about us in such a country? Secondly, of course, there is a difference between
00:03:08naturalization and separating
00:03:10created a system that living and humanitarian rights from
00:03:12sovereign and political rights.
00:03:16married one of This child, until he reaches adulthood, his right is absolute.
00:03:19This is what I was going to say, that giving him his rights
00:03:23see them. So this is a rare case. I mean, it cannot in education, in medicine, in everything,
00:03:25this is not, until he chooses
00:03:29but this adulthood and reaches that age and studies are completed,
00:03:32and of course, he cannot pay the price of his father's criminal
00:03:35or security choices. However,
00:03:37But I want this I answered in general that this
00:03:39law to take its course in file, should it be presented immediately, like this?
00:03:42Even if the study takes a month or two? I think not, as the
00:03:46member of the People's Assembly said, it needs a lot of study, and not
00:03:49just legislative study, as we said, from all economic
00:03:53and security aspects, because you are going to bring back, as he said, possibly hundreds of thousands of
00:03:58women are those who were found in foreigners to add them to
00:04:01a destroyed economy without an environment. We are now building
00:04:03agrees on this the infrastructure. All of this
00:04:05means, I think, it's wrong.
00:04:09Two, that there is, for example, gender equality.
00:04:13Of course, this is not a luxury. But at the same time, we
00:04:16do not jump to this without
00:04:19defusing a very ticking time bomb. I mean, you understand
00:04:22that we have many economic, security, and real estate
00:04:26aspects, and from all aspects. So it needs to be studied legislatively,
00:04:30economically, and even securely.
00:04:32And then, of course, because there is no
00:04:36just peace or sustainability. I always mention that studies show
00:04:40And to Ras al-Ain in that peace in which women participate has more continuity
00:04:43than three times that in which men participate, sometimes
00:04:47even. So, of course, there will be no peace. We will reach
00:04:51title is that we are with stability and peace in Syria if Dr. K is not there. I mean,
00:04:55I support what you mentioned. China, for example,
00:04:58prohibits marriage. Citizenship. Rather, if
00:05:01a Chinese
00:05:04Darayya and its removal and transfer in citizen applies for, for example, American citizenship, this
00:05:06is a problem. He may lose his Chinese citizenship. So if he takes American citizenship,
00:05:10he loses it. Why? This is a national security dimension.
00:05:13So, I mean, we are not isolated. We are not now on a path
00:05:16where there is no one in the universe
00:05:20but us. And now, I mean, Syrian mothers should not misunderstand
00:05:24me as being frustrated by my words, but I am now describing the reality.
00:05:27And perhaps there will be satisfactory and reassuring solutions,
00:05:31but the public interest should
00:05:35first be put first, and then we begin to
00:05:39cases and enact a law for these cases. For example, Syrian
00:05:43mothers married to Palestinians. This is a reality
00:05:47in our society.
00:05:50many of them. So the matter is not that easy. Well,
00:05:54the matter is not that easy. Let's hear Dr. Osama's
00:05:57opinion. Well, with all due respect
00:06:01to the esteemed guests, but do you see the matter as being
00:06:05this simple, this easy, Dr. Osama? By
00:06:08God, it couldn't be simpler. Our security fears are misplaced.
00:06:12First of all, the doctor mentioned that all these security threats
00:06:15surrounding Syria, there is no security threat
00:06:18from naturalizing a child, right? Who takes Syrian citizenship. There is no
00:06:22security threat from that. The honorable brothers confused
00:06:25granting citizenship
00:06:28to a person who holds another citizenship with
00:06:32a child born or who was born
00:06:35to a Syrian mother. There is a difference. This is a grant,
00:06:37and this is a right. When there is a leader,
00:06:40yes,
00:06:46there is a big difference. When I am, for example, of
00:06:49Egyptian nationality, for example, and I came and applied for Syrian citizenship, this
00:06:53is a grant from the state that it gives to him. Yes, that's right. Whereas,
00:06:57when my mother is Syrian or my father is Syrian, this is our right to take it,
00:07:00regardless of my father's crime and regardless of my mother's crime.
00:07:04If we were to think in this way, our citizenships would be revoked.
00:07:07No, I am one of the people who were born abroad.
00:07:11All my life, I have been an opponent since
00:07:131967 before Hafez al-Assad. He was an opponent
00:07:17of Amin al-Hafez. So is this
00:07:20logical to say that for security reasons we are postponing this matter?
00:07:23No, this is a right, a right, not a grant.
00:07:27Dr. Abdullah said, Osama, Dr. Osama, you
00:07:30no, my brother, with all due respect, you
00:07:33are giving him his right. There
00:07:36is Asdal Osama. Go ahead, Dr. Abdullah. Dr. Osama,
00:07:40is the
00:07:42situation we are in now as a law? I said that we are in favor.
00:07:46In broad terms, we are in favor of that. But if we go
00:07:49into details, there must be some restrictions that protect
00:07:53the process. Well, are we as Syria,
00:07:57excuse me, are we in Syria the
00:08:00only ones? No, you have all the Gulf countries prohibiting dual
00:08:03nationality, and this will therefore be if the child is from
00:08:07a non-Syrian father, meaning he will take the nationality of the non-Syrian father,
00:08:10then he will take the nationality.
00:08:19I say, have we now
00:08:22no other country agrees with us on? So there are considerations. We
00:08:26are not walking on Earth alone. We haven't invented
00:08:29a law. No, Dr. Osama,
00:08:32I mean, the system now in Syria in this
00:08:35regard is like Europe, like European countries. Right, Dr.
00:08:39Osama, just allow me. No, even Egypt, Egypt
00:08:42amended the law, and Morocco amended the law,
00:08:46and the mother now grants citizenship. So we
00:08:49are not talking about something impossible. And there are many observations about Gulf
00:08:53countries regarding granting visas. I want to
00:08:56clarify a point so that we move away a little from this problem and discuss
00:08:59more the societal repercussions of such a law.
00:09:03The basic idea is that I don't think anyone disagrees with the other
00:09:07regarding the natural right for the woman to give her child
00:09:10citizenship based on blood relation.
00:09:13I think everyone
00:09:15matter. The basic idea is that
00:09:19in Syria, not everyone agrees. The guests do not
00:09:22agree. I saw that they do agree, but
00:09:26let me just say one thing.
00:09:29I mean, I emphasized, I said repeatedly in the great title. It seems Dr. Osama
00:09:32did not understand
00:09:34your point. Let me
00:09:37let me complete the main point, which is that
00:09:40we in Syria, due to the situation we lived through,
00:09:43the revolution and the war, we have many
00:09:47repercussions. So any law that is enacted must
00:09:50address this matter. We are not starting from scratch. We are not
00:09:54saying that those who were born now should immediately get it.
00:09:57I mean, those who were born now should immediately get it. But for example, when
00:10:01you want to put such a law, you need to address the fears of society. I will
00:10:04give you some of the fears, right?
00:10:07One of the fears is that you don't have accurate statistics
00:10:11on the number of children born
00:10:14to Syrian women and from what year. I mean, you want to go back to what
00:10:18year? You want to go back to 1950 or 40
00:10:21or 20 or from what year? So in this case, you have millions.
00:10:25And this is one. I did topic,
00:10:29that imagine in all countries of the world, I haven't seen anyone
00:10:33who did research on Syrians,
00:10:36Syrian women married to non-Syrians and have children, except
00:10:39in Turkey. The Turkish Statistical Institute, called TÜİK, did
00:10:42a study published in 2025. The number of Syrian
00:10:46women married officially to Turks
00:10:50is approximately between 55 and 60,000
00:10:53women.
00:10:55The same Turkish Statistical Institute said that the estimated
00:10:59number of children born per family is approximately four children. So you are
00:11:03talking about approximately 200,000
00:11:06children who are Turkish, but their mother is Syrian. They don't have Syrian
00:11:09citizenship. So these, if they have Turkish
00:11:12citizenship, they have Turkish citizenship. But these are eligible to
00:11:16Syrian
00:11:20law is approved. And these, in one way or
00:11:22another, are living in Turkey, a stable environment.
00:11:30Children are getting an environment, a family, living within
00:11:34a family. So there is no fear. I mean, I see that
00:11:37according
00:11:40to this statistic, if we build on it, there is no fear of granting
00:11:43them citizenship. There is no fear of demographic change, nor is there fear
00:11:47that they will be an obstacle or a security fear or a security threat to these
00:11:50children. So we should not be in our fears like Europe
00:11:54fears Muslims, that if they are given many citizenships, there will be something called
00:11:59tension of fears. But
00:12:03I am talking about when there is official
00:12:06statistics, people will no longer be afraid. But there
00:12:11statistics. If there were accurate statistics, the problem, I will tell you
00:12:15something, you have militias that came to Syria
00:12:18to fight. Zainabiyoun, Fatimiyoun,
00:12:21PKK came and married
00:12:24in Syria. Are you, Dr.
00:12:28Osama, also in favor of granting them citizenship?
00:12:31Their children, yes. I mean, let's reverse it. If a
00:12:35female fighter came, right, and a Syrian
00:12:39citizen married her, would the child be granted citizenship or not?
00:12:42Let's just reverse it. I, I
00:12:45will repeat, when you have clear statistics on this matter,
00:12:49when you deal with this matter in a specific context,
00:12:52it is different from when you enact a general law and proceed. This is what I mean by what I am saying.
00:12:55Therefore, there are concerns that there are no clear statistics
00:12:59on this matter. There is a response to, I mean, to
00:13:02Professor Osama's proposal. Of course, we respect any point
00:13:05of view so that we don't, I mean, when we speak, we are not misunderstood.
00:13:09Dr. Osama tells you no, there are no
00:13:13security fears, and there are no societal calculations,
00:13:16nor economic ones. And the matter is, I mean, very easy, according to him. Well, when we talk about
00:13:20a geographical area that is the
00:13:24scene of the events now. The events are happening in Syria.
00:13:28The number of those entering this area
00:13:30of non-Syrian men is
00:13:34generally more than women. You are talking about a small case
00:13:37when a Syrian husband
00:13:41the militias. We didn't see, we didn't see female militias entering
00:13:44Syria. I mean, we didn't
00:13:48be measured by the majority
00:13:51case. When the militias came to areas
00:13:55loyal to the regime and marriage occurred between them, then we have a very large
00:13:58number here. So this is the idea that
00:14:01we are saying,
00:14:03and even the idea that you mentioned.
00:14:10We all agree on the idea that a woman
00:14:13has the right to grant citizenship
00:14:16to her children.
00:14:19Mayssa, Dr., you contradicted me on this idea. You said no, you don't
00:14:22agree.
00:14:25You said no, it's not true. We agree in principle. Everyone agrees. I'm just asking, I'm
00:14:28saying, do we agree? Yes, yes, we agree in
00:14:32principle. It seems there is no disagreement
00:14:36over it. Yes, may I, Mr. Muhammad? Go ahead, Doctor.
00:14:39Thank you, because it is very important. First of all, allow me to respond to Mr.
00:14:43First, it is a revolution, but it equals a thousand revolutions, but in the national
00:14:47and humanitarian terminology, but in scientific terminology, as
00:14:50sister Mayssa mentioned, war or war in English is armed
00:14:54conflict or
00:15:37a humanitarian and constitutional entitlement, not from me and not a luxury.
00:15:41This means, what does it mean? Entitlement means
00:15:44a duty. But we are mentioning the reasons, the timing,
00:15:47the geography,
00:15:49even when he mentioned that, well, the woman, in an attempt to balance between women
00:15:53and men, as he said, as the brother, the member of the People's Assembly, said, well,
00:15:57we need to create data, we don't have data, and I mentioned it before, we have clear
00:16:00data, we have real, accurate files to see
00:16:03who entered more. Do you really think in community security and humanitarian
00:16:09peace that you secure your children?
00:16:12I mean, not just give them, I mean, not just, of course, children are given, there is a solution. We haven't
00:16:16gotten into the solutions yet or the vision of the solution. Of course, we are
00:16:20talking about it being proposed by the brother as full naturalization.
00:16:24No state has ever granted automatic naturalization
00:16:27like this after such a stage, after 15
00:16:31years of, you know, what happened from all
00:16:34aspects, even in all countries. You are saying there is no
00:16:38granting of citizenship or I mean, granting of citizenship without verification
00:16:42and without scrutiny and without? I told you Canada
00:16:45and America. I, I got citizenship, excuse me, I got
00:16:48clearance. I even used to reside in another country. I have residency
00:16:51in America. I
00:16:52underwent
00:16:57and your parents are not American. You got, you were granted citizenship.
00:17:00It is natural for there to be security scrutiny.
00:17:04But we are talking about that if
00:17:08I, I let me say two important points
00:17:10for the professor.
00:17:14the ground. There are people, as he said, there are militias. We don't know how many
00:17:18people are involved in stories. There are fake contracts.
00:17:22I mean, this is big data that you need to balance
00:17:25and verify, Professor Osama. Professor Osama, you,
00:17:28Professor Osama, look at the national. Look at the national
00:17:32security of the country. Don't look at one issue. Yes, we say why not
00:17:36when there is no national threat? Yes, welcome.
00:17:39When there is a large number and there is a threat
00:17:43to a certain nationality, I mean, it's not reasonable, for example,
00:17:46as I mentioned, a militia
00:17:49leader who is present. Go ahead.
00:17:52And this wife herself, the wife herself, how can she be the wife of a militia
00:17:56leader? So she should go to transitional justice law,
00:17:59and we should not prevent her and make
00:18:03bones here and there. I mean, the issue of looking at national security, excuse me,
00:18:06even national security in all countries of the world looks
00:18:10at its security. National security is looked at regardless.
00:18:13Go ahead.
00:18:16It is measured against Germany or against Turkey. Yes.
00:18:20This is all in the matter of granting citizenship, granting citizenship.
00:18:23As for the matter of granting the right of citizenship to the newborn,
00:18:27it is different. We in Syria are not in an ideal situation. We still
00:18:31have a segment of people who are still at large. The state has not
00:18:34arrested them. There are still hundreds
00:18:37of wanted people, thousands of them, and their children are present, and their wives
00:18:40are present. They have not harmed national security in any way.
00:18:43I mean, if there are no accurate
00:18:47statistics, how can we?
00:18:50Muslim, just let me give the right.
00:18:53I will go ahead of you, Professor Muslim. Professor Muslim, I will go ahead of you even
00:18:57in the position, if you want. I am in favor when the situation in
00:19:00Syria stabilizes, that even Syrian women, I mean, if a Syrian
00:19:03woman is married to a non-Syrian,
00:19:06person, I mean, they call it the right
00:19:10to citizenship after residence or acquired citizenship. I am in favor
00:19:13that if the Syrian woman is married to a non-Syrian man
00:19:17and resided in Syria
00:19:20for a certain period and his security file after security checks was
00:19:24excellent, I am even in favor of granting him citizenship, like all countries
00:19:27in the world. I am in favor that if even residence without marriage is
00:19:31not present in the old law itself, it is present. Yes, even
00:19:34without marriage, residence itself should also be, but
00:19:38when? The truth is, I will say something. I mean, since I am also the director
00:19:42of a women's organization, what I have seen is that now, in Syria's
00:19:45current situation, Syrian women are not forced in camps,
00:19:49for example, to marry someone now, now in this situation, after
00:19:52liberation, they are not forced in certain circumstances to marry someone whose identity is unknown.
00:19:56Uh, so-and-so's father or so-and-so's father, they are not forced, even
00:19:59in other areas, to marry someone who came from outside. They are not
00:20:03forced to accept marriage conditions that they used to accept before.
00:20:07What I am saying is that now, when there is
00:20:10poverty, there is poverty in this story.
00:20:13It is possible.
00:20:15Kinda, Professor Kinda, we are talking about previous
00:20:19contexts. Previous contexts,
00:20:23exactly. In previous contexts, during the revolution,
00:20:26women were forced to go through
00:20:30the experience of marriage. Some women, of course, some
00:20:33women, these matters were not confirmed. These marriages were not confirmed, or
00:20:37the children were not confirmed. They don't have birth certificates. Some children
00:20:40in the camps don't have rights, no birth certificates, no
00:20:44education rights, etc. What I am saying is that if such
00:20:47a law exists, this law must be presented
00:20:51like this, bluntly. There must be
00:20:54contexts, special cases to be addressed because we are in an
00:20:57exceptional situation. So if we take all cases within
00:21:01a specific context and address each case individually, specific
00:21:04contexts, I mean, people in camps, people who
00:21:07came from outside, for example,
00:21:09from during
00:21:13the Syrian revolution, many people came from outside and got married. So we must
00:21:17address. I want to ask if someone from the Zionist
00:21:21entity, a Syrian woman married
00:21:26the Zionist entity, how do we act in this regard too?
00:21:30Dr. Osama, I don't want to answer for him. I don't want to answer for him. He will answer.
00:21:33Go ahead. The child is not to blame for that
00:21:37at all. He has an entitlement, whether his father
00:21:40was a Zionist, whether the Syrian regime.
00:21:44All of Syria and national security, I mean, national security considerations, Dr.
00:21:47Osama,
00:21:54these national security considerations, we throw them aside. We throw them in the mud.
00:21:58I mean, what do we do? This is our Syrian son. This
00:22:01is our son, whether his father is a Zionist or
00:22:04an Israeli or Bashari or whoever, this
00:22:07is our son. We adopt him, and we take care
00:22:11of him. There is a solution, there is a simple solution. He is
00:22:15two or three years old.
00:22:18When he grows up,
00:22:21the issue of national security, of course, there are entities that determine this, and we,
00:22:24as a national security apparatus, are supposed to be able to assess
00:22:28the situation. So we must also discuss this, Dr.
00:22:32We are academics and community activists,
00:22:35and we also have our opinion and we express it. Of course,
00:22:38we respect, we respect your opinion. The time of the episode is almost
00:22:41over. I will divide the time equally among the guests. I will start with Dr.
00:22:45Kinda. Go ahead. Thank you.
00:22:48issue has solutions, three solutions actually. I mean, this
00:22:52could be after study, of course, by the concerned authorities, the People's Assembly
00:22:55here. But I am speaking theoretically, how it could be
00:22:58or from the gist of other experiences. There is something called,
00:23:02I mean, no one is discussing this now. The child will certainly be deprived, no matter
00:23:06who his father is, even children in Al-Hol camp, even anyone. They
00:23:09have the right to take and guarantee all the child's
00:23:13living and humanitarian rights, health and education, even
00:23:16with a residency permit. I said it.
00:23:24I mean, case by case. This is an outcome that can be, as the ministry mentioned, within
00:23:28frameworks and with security approvals. That means we are back to each case
00:23:32being studied individually. I mean, every naturalization file
00:23:35for children born needs to be studied and there will be security approvals
00:23:38and stories. Beautiful. Even this, I agree with this. But we mean, even
00:23:42at this stage, and we don't know how many children there are, as everyone is saying,
00:23:46how much do we have the luxury of covering these studies
00:23:50and these, I mean, all the conditions?
00:23:54I mean, even case by case, we need to ensure transparency, ensure no one
00:23:58pays money to get it. We also need to ensure
00:24:01that when a security decision is issued, it might be unfair, for example.
00:24:05Right? We need an appeal through the judiciary. This child
00:24:09and his parents need to appeal through the judiciary. Do we have an independent judiciary?
00:24:12Have we finished building an independent judiciary? And build, for example,
00:24:15let's enter a series of, okay, but just for the sake of time,
00:24:19Dr. K. Quickly, I naturally
00:24:23support giving, with the Syrian mother giving her children citizenship.
00:24:29discussion more and to be discussed at higher levels,
00:24:33more at the popular level, to address people's fears and also to address every
00:24:36problem in its context. Previous problems, of course. Dr. Osama.
00:24:40Yes. I correct a statement. The issue
00:24:44of the camps, that the purest
00:24:48the camps. So we
00:25:16describe the reality. We say children.
00:25:20Born to non-Syrian fathers,
00:25:23whether they are wanted by security or not wanted
00:25:26by security. This is a description of the reality. We don't mention the camps.
00:25:30The camps have the purest women. No one mentioned
00:25:33them, Professor Jamil. Dr. Abd
00:25:36Allah forgive you. The broad
00:25:41Syrian women, for they are our sisters
00:25:44and our daughters and our mothers.
00:25:46And we exert all our efforts to preserve their dignity
00:25:50and help them with everything that improves
00:25:54their lives. But there must be
00:25:58controls. The security of our country is the origin. We will not
00:26:02accept. Loyalty to our mothers, sisters, and wives
00:26:05of martyrs, that citizenship be granted and a militia
00:26:09leader be rewarded, rewarded by granting citizenship to his children.
00:26:13We do not accept planting mines in Syria,
00:26:16which we want. Regarding women, regarding women in
00:26:20camps, camps, we mean that there was
00:26:23marriage, but unfortunately, due to the lack of child
00:26:26registration, a problem occurred, so there are
00:26:30children who do not have birth
00:26:33adequate education. This is it. Okay, thank you for the clarification. Thank you to our esteemed guests.
00:26:37We have exceeded the time, unfortunately. We have exceeded the time. Dr. Kinda, I thank
00:26:41you very much. Dr. Osama, Dr. Abdullah, and Professor. My apologies, of course,
00:26:44to everyone. Thank you all. And thanks are extended, of course, to you,
00:26:48dear viewers. Tomorrow or next week, God willing, there will be a new episode at
00:26:519 PM. Goodbye.
