Many countries have concerns about the Golan Heights (e.g. will it be part of the Syrian Civil War, will it remain peaceful, etc.), but if the question is asking about what country other than Israel argues that it has the right to control the Golan Heights, that would be SYRIA.

The Golan Heights is a large portion of the Syrian province of Quneitira which forms the southernmost edge of the Anti-Lebanon Mountains. However, as a result of the Six Day War of 1967, the Golan Heights fell under legal Israeli occupation (pursuant to UNSC Resolution 242) until such time as Israel and Syria could come to a peace agreement. In 1981, Israel illegally annexed the Golan Heights to its Northern Province. It remains under Israeli control.

However, aside from the Golan Heights, which is less than 1% of all of Syria, Israel does not occupy any Syrian land.
