CAIRO, Aug.15, ( ST)- Today, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Faisal Al-Mikdad said that changes and developments which the world is witnessing make activation of Arab joint action a necessity more than ever before.
“We reiterate that commitment to Syria’s sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity, non-intervention in its domestic affairs, is the basis and priority to Syria’s relations and policy to deal with different issues related to the country,” Al-Miqdad said at the Arab Ministerial liaison committee’s meeting on Syria being held in Cairo.
He called for combating all forms of terrorism until its full elimination as it poses a threat to Syria and other countries.
The minister added that the Arab fraternal role in supporting the Syrian people to overcome all war repercussions and end the Turkish occupation of Syrian lands is very necessary.
“Syria welcomes the return of all Syrian refugees to their country and it has taken a number of procedures and facilitations they need to return home,” he asserted, pointing out that about half million refugees have voluntarily returned to Syria.
