As if Aleppo is a city in Djibouti or Afghanistan or in Brazil: Syria will remain committed to combating terrorism, will not relinquish an inch of its territory

Syria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Bashar al-Jaafari asserted that Syria will remain committed to combating terrorism, and that others must stop exploiting the Syrian people.



At a Security Council on Syria held on Sunday, al-Jaafari said that the Syrian government will not relinquish a single inch of its territory as per the Syrian constitution and the rules of international law, stressing that politicizing the humanitarian crisis will only extend it, increase Syrians’ suffering, and encourage the spread of terrorism.

“The representative of Britain, one of the three states that called for holding this session, said that Syria is ‘broken and about to die,’ and I would like to reassure him that my country hasn’t been broken and will never be broken,” al-Jaafari said, adding that the British representative’s discourse doesn’t reflect the weight of a state that is a permanent member of the Security Council.

“As for the three representatives together, it seemed as if they’re rediscovering the wheel when they said that the Syrian government is seeking to reclaim Aleppo. Imagine the scale of this monumental discovery made by the representatives of three permanent member states in the Security Council, as if Aleppo is a city in Djibouti or Afghanistan or in Brazil! I would like to reassure them that the Syrian government will reclaim Aleppo in its entirety, and if the member states in this international organization have a single capital each, my country has two capitals: Damascus and Aleppo,” he said.

Syria’s Representative went on to note that the three states that called for holding the session have prevented the Security Council on 13 different occasions from adopting a statement condemning terrorist bombings using car bombs or suicide bombers or bombardment carried out by their forces, in addition to preventing attempts to adopt resolutions that condemn terrorism.

  • “When there was a French terrorist called Mohammed Merah running amok in the French city of Toulouse, the French special forces killed him with 300 bullets, and it was a good thing that they did so, but we in Syria and in other states never described that French terrorist as ‘moderate armed opposition’ at all, and the same goes for other terrorists active in the United States and elsewhere,” al-Jaafari said.

He went on to say that this session was held at the behest of some members in a bid to rescue the armed terrorist groups that these states falsely label as “moderate armed opposition,” noting that this happens whenever there are indicators that these terrorists are being defeated by the onslaught of the operations carried out by the Syrian Arab Army and its allies.

Al-Jaafari said that some Security Council members are forgetting the image of Palestinian child Abdullah Issa who was beheaded by Nour Eddin al-Zenki terrorist movement in full view of the entire world, noting that this movement along with Jabhat al-Nusra terror organization had been in control of Handarat Camp for Palestinian refugees in Syria.

“We believe that some permanent member states’ calls for holding this session constitute a message from these states to Jabhat al-Nusra and other terrorist groups affiliated to it saying that the support and political cover provided to them are still standing and won’t stop, and that using terrorism as a weapon to pressure the Syrian government and its allies politically is still effective,” he said.....http://sana.sy/en/?p=88993
