People’s Assembly issues statement on the 84th anniversary of usurping Alexanderetta

DAMASCUS, Nov.28, (ST)-People’s Assembly [Parliament] said on Tuesday that the crime of usurping Liwa Iskenderun (Alexanderetta)from Syrian land is a clear example of the policies adopted by Western countries and their allies to fragment countries and steal the resources of their people by following all immoral and illegal methods in order to achieve their colonial goals and plans.

“Today, and after all those years, the new Ottomans- the other face of the Zionist enemy that occupies the Syrian Arab Golan and Palestine- represented by Erdogan and his Muslim Brotherhood regime and their mercenaries, continue the same methods, taking advantage of the global war launched by forces of terrorism and aggression on Syria to occupy some of its lands, steal factories and smuggle them to inside Turkey, in addition to the continuous and repeated cutting off of drinking water to more than a million people in Hasakah and its vicinity,” the Assembly said in a statement on the occasion of the 84th  anniversary of usurping Liwa Iskandarun.

According to the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA), the People’s Assembly stressed that Liwa Iskandarun is an integral part of Syria and it is present in the minds and consciences of all Syrians, adding that  any attempt to seize any part of Syrian territory will only be met with more struggle and resistance to restore the usurped rights.
