On Syria, Huckabee said its leadership understands that the path to long-term stability goes through peace with Israel. According to him, this is a distinct Syrian interest and not just an Israeli or American demand. “Ahmed al-Sharaa’s (also known as Abu Mohammad al-Julani) path to survival depends on peace with Israel,” he said, adding that this is not about expecting warm friendly relations, but an arrangement that will ensure security and stability. Huckabee emphasized that Israel is not seeking control or border expansion, but requests a quiet and secure border that will prevent the formation of a future threat from the east, similar to the events of October 7.
