The French Judiciary’s Decision Against the Syrian President: A Comprehensive Analysis

A move by France increased noise, unrest, accusations, and instability in the Middle East and Europe region. yet this act by France is invalid that’s why it brings a wave of instability to the region.  The case relates to a 2013 chemical attack on opposition-held Damascus suburbs that killed more than 1,000 people and injured thousands.

French prosecutors have requested the country’s highest court to rule on the validity of an international arrest warrant for Syrian President Bashar Assad for alleged complicity in war crimes during Syria’s civil war.
