The British MI-6 intelligence agency’s representative Jonathan Powell met with the leader of the Al-Qaeda-affiliated al-Nusra Front (Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham) Abu Mohammad al-Julani.
The meeting took place near the Bab al-Hawa Border Crossing on the Syrian-Turkish border.
Jonathan Powell suggested that Abu Mohammad al-Julani should build close cooperation with European countries and the US.
The HTS is mostly controlled by the Turkish special services. But they are also trying to cooperate with representatives of other countries, with whom they are negotiating the change of their status.
In exchange to financial support, terrorists provide information about other Syrian militants.
