Yes, there is still violence and differences among them, but overall they are glad he has assumed the Presidency of their country after Mr. Assad left the country for Russia and President Putin's welcome.
And, despite Mr. al-Shara's troubled career with the jihadists, he has appointed as ministries in his interim government representatives from the favored Alawite sect, as well as a Christian, a Druze and a Kurd. As a forthright pluralist, he urges unity among his people, whatever sects they belong to.
Reported in the Economist, April 5 issue, pp. 34 ff., the people are behind him! But there is much to do to bring about a functioning nation. Not to mention the condition of the Gaza Strip!
My opinion.
