The article addresses the dilemma facing a newly independent Syria after the fall of Bashar Assad’s regime: balancing the pursuit of transitional justice with the possibility of cooperation with the international community. It discusses the detention of Amjad Youssef, accused of committing murders and with filmed confessions, who has sparked calls for his execution. However, carrying out such a sentence could hinder collaboration with international organizations vital for uncovering the fate of the missing persons—many Syrians still wonder about the whereabouts of their loved ones who disappeared in regime prisons.
