Dissident former Syrian Vice President Abdel Halim Khaddam accused the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria of conducting negotiations with the Damascus authorities.

Khaddam told Al Jazeera that the group’s withdrawal from the opposition National Salvation Front was not surprising, adding that the Brotherhood wanted, through their latest statement, to cover these negotiations with “the issue of Gaza, the Palestinian people, and the resistance.”

It was stated in an official statement published by the banned group in Syria from its headquarters in the British capital, in which it confirmed that its participation in establishing the National Salvation Front in March 2006 was based on its conviction that alliances concluded with other opposition forces in Syria do not nullify the independence and privacy of each party in isolation from the other.

The group pointed out that the recent Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip prompted it to “put all its capabilities in the service of the resistance project, and to suspend its opposition activities in order to save its efforts for the basic battle and confront the aggression.

” It called on the regime in Syria – in line with the slogan of resistance and support for the resistance – to initiate national reconciliation with its people and to Removing all obstacles that prevent Syria from performing its required role to defend its position, liberate its lands, and support the steadfastness of the Palestinians.”

It is noteworthy that the National Salvation Front in Syria includes in its ranks a number of opponents of the Syrian regime, including Khaddam, who participated with the General Controller of the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria, Ali Sadr al-Din al-Bayanouni, in establishing the Front.
