Tajik Foreign Minister: Syria is ready to help return the families of Tajik terrorists to their country

Dushanbe  (ST): Tajikistan’s Foreign Minister, Sirajuddin Mehruddin, announced that his country is working to restore about 260 families of ISIS terrorists who are in camps in northeastern Syria to Tajikistan, stressing that the Syrian government has shown its willingness to provide assistance in this regard.

The Russian news agency TASS quoted Minister Mehruddin as saying in a press conference in the Tajik capital that there are about 260 people, mostly women and children, in two camps in Syria, adding that international organizations, especially  the Red Cross and the  “UNICEF” are cooperating with Tajik authorities in this case and a list of these persons’ names has been put.

According to the Tajik minister, it was not possible last year to organize the return of these people to their country due to the Corona pandemic and the restrictions imposed  with regard to it, but work in this direction will continue during the current year.

For years, Syria has been subjected to a new kind of terrorist war, in which  Arab, regional and Western countries, have been   sending terrorists from all parts of the world to Syria in an attempt to undermine its national  stances and the independence of its decision.

On the eighth of this month, UN human rights experts called upon 57 countries to take back about 10 thousand families of ISIS terrorists who hold the nationalities of these countries in northeastern Syria and to prosecute the adults for war crimes or other crimes that have been committed there.

According to the latest UN statistics, there are about 9,462 foreign women and children who came to Syria with terrorists, for whom the borders were opened under the auspices of countries and foreign intelligence services, most notably Turkey and the head of its regime, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
