Foreign Ministry: EU decision to renew coercive measures on Syria unveils the falseness of the stances and statements of its officials

Damascus, SANA-Syria has affirmed that the European Union’s decision to renew the coercive measures imposed on the country unveils the falseness of the stances and statements of its officials and uncovers the hypocrisy which has become a basic feature for the European policies.

“Those sanctions are a flagrant violation of the simplest human laws and the humanitarian international law… and they are a crime against humanity,” A source at the Foreign and Expatriates Ministry said in a statement on Thursday.

The source added that it was not surprising for the EU to renew the coercive measures on Syria, particularly as it came after the US decision in the same regard, which stresses that the EU has lost the independence of resolution and its subjugation to the US policy.

It added that the decision affirms once again the comprehensive partnership of the EU in the war against Syria and its unlimited support for the terrorist organizations, so it assumes full responsibility in the bloodshed of the Syrians and their suffering due to the unjust sanctions.
