In a statement, the self-administration said, "We are not concerned with implementing the new decisions of the Syrian government."

The "Self-Administration" in northeastern Syria has announced its rejection of the decisions issued by the Transitional Syrian Government, formed on Saturday, March 29, citing its lack of inclusivity of the components and spectra of the Syrian people. In a statement on Sunday, March 30, the "Self-Administration" stated, "Over the past weeks and months, Syrians have been eagerly anticipating the formation of a national government, hoping it would be comprehensive in representing the diversity and plurality in the country, given the great suffering Syrians have endured due to exclusion and marginalization policies under the former regime, which monopolized power and marginalized many sectors of the Syrian people." The administration continued in its statement that "the government announced in Damascus closely resembles its predecessor in not taking Syria's diversity into account, continuing to consolidate control from one side and not providing fair and real representation for all components of the Syrian people." The administration noted in its statement that "the Damascus government monopolizes power from one side, excluding Syrian components and spectra from the political process and the management of the country's affairs, contradicting entirely the goals for which Syrians rose in their revolution and the change they aspire to." "Therefore, we in the Self-Administration affirm that any government that does not reflect the diversity and plurality in Syria will not be able to govern the country properly and lead it out of the crisis it is facing, but will deepen the crisis and not address the root causes that led to its outbreak." The statement clarified that the administration "will not be concerned with implementing the government's decisions, as this insistence on repeating past mistakes will harm Syrians and will never lead to launching a comprehensive political process that can provide solutions to the pending issues, problems, and crises in Syria," as expressed. In conclusion, the statement called for a "decentralized participatory state, to stop the policies of exclusion and marginalization, and to embrace all the sons of the Syrian people from all components, religions, and sects."
