In February 2016, after more than five years of violent conflict in Syria, an agreement brokered by international powers was reached on a ceasefire implemented disparately across Syria excluding the the Fatah al-Sham and the Islamic State (ISIS) but not excluding any of the forces and militias having a connection with the regime who have participated in and continue to kill hundreds of thousands of Syrians. As such, the Jihadist extremist organizations became a pretext to strike any region in Syria and to commit the most heinous massacres against the population with international silence and blessing.
This research aims to identify the most prominent opinions in Syria concerning these international agreements which will enable us to understand some of their consequences as well as their direct and indirect effects. Furthermore, these studies will contribute to the conveyance of the voice of those Syrians unaccounted for at the decision-making table.
