İSTANBUL - UK Open University Political Science Instructor Cengiz Güneş said 'There is no chance that a commission that does not include the autonomous administration representing the Kurds and a significant part of the Syrian society has a chance of success' about the Constitutional Commission established regarding the future of Syria. 
 
 
A constitutional commission was established last week to end the ongoing war in Syria that caused thousands of people lost their lives or migrate and to pave the way for a political soluton. However, this commission did not include representatives of the North East Syrian Autonomous Administration, which constitutes almost one third of the country. While this situation leads to comments that it will undermine the process from the beginning, Turkey which is uncomfortable with USA because of their relations with the Kurdish is planning to occupy the safe zone they are working on with USA. On the other hand, Russia and Iran, as well as the Damascus regime, continues to follow policies in accordance with their own accounts.
 
 
Cengiz Güneş, Political Science and International Relations Professor at Open University located in UK evaluated the policies of local and global actors who has a plan in the region and the Constitutional Commission.
 
Güneş mentioned the Constitutional Commission which is announced by the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres. Güneş stating 'Although the establishment of the Constitutional Commission has been described as a great progress and success, it does not seem easy to establish consensus on the new political system which is necessary to end the war and ensure lasting peace', emphasized that a commission that does not include the Kurds and a substantial part of the Syrian society does not have a chance to succeed.
 
 
For the commission established, Güneş said: " It raises the current doubts that it can establish a system that defends the rights of all Syrian society. The exclusion of the Kurds and the Autonomous Administration also reduces the possibility of the Constitutional Commission's acceptance by the international powers.
