Damascus, SANA-The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates affirmed its categorical rejection of all forms of external interference in its internal affairs.
The recent calls by outlaw groups that have participated in violence on Syrian soil to demand so-called “international protection” are illegal and completely rejected.
“Those appeals come from parties operating outside the framework of Syrian law, in a clear attempt to internationalize a situation that must be addressed exclusively within the institutions of the Syrian state. These actions represent a direct threat to the unity of the country and undermine national efforts to restore security and stability throughout the country”. The Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs affirmed its unwavering commitment to protecting all components of the Syrian people without exception, including the honorable Druze community, which has always been and remains an integral part of the Syrian national fabric.
The statement stated that the Syrian government expresses its deep appreciation for the wise and responsible role played by a number of Druze sheikhs and leaders in extinguishing the fire of strife and preserving civil peace.
It added that the Syrian Arab Republic reiterates its full affirmation that all national issues are addressed solely through national mechanisms, and categorically rejects any foreign dictates or interference, as Syria’s sovereignty is not subject to debate or negotiation.
