Syrian State the Father for all Syrians
The concept of regional security is but one; if chaos prevails, none is to be safe, Syria’s Minister of Information, Omran al-Zou’bi reiterated.
In a 70 minute dialogue with the Syrian Satellite TV Friday evening, Minister al-Zou’bi, gave a comprehensive panoramic view of the under implementation political vision outlined by H.E. President Bashar Al-Assad in his January 6th landmark speech. This very landmark and historic by all accounts vision is but an integrated, full-fledged political program tackling the general situation in Syria as to restore security and stability.
It is but a logical and realistic three-phased vision based on Syria’s sovereignty, integrity and unity. The preparatory phase includes the commitment of concerned countries to halt the financing of violence and terrorism, commitment by armed groups to cease violence, commitment by the Syrian Army to halt its military operations, save in case of defence, and the finding of an appropriate mechanism to monitor the above mentioned, Minister al-Zou’bi recalled.
Minister al-Zou’bi held the first phased measures as a necessary prelude to the second and third phased measures and steps, asserting, however, that the non-implementation of the first phased in no way would hinder the efforts for an all-out implementation of consequent measures. Humanitarian aid is to reach all the needy and reparations are to be duly paid.
The Minister was clear and determined in outlining that the Syrian State, in a legitimate struggle to defend the Syrians against terrorism, defend existence and practice its right to spread security and sovereignty on its territories, is in NO way against any Syrian, including the armed who put down their arms. ”The State is the father for all Syrians; the State is not litigant with any Syrian, and the State is owned not by anybody,” calling for dialogue away from bullets.
The dialogue by the State has been started with all and on a daily basis, based on Syria’s national basics: national sovereignty, rejection to foreign interference and renunciation of violence. The unconditional dialogue about the future of Syria is serious and open for all, underlined Minister al-Zou’bi. Every Syrian worldwide is invited and welcomed to take part in shaping this brilliant tomorrow. Armed men are also welcome once they surrender arms. The would be convened national dialogue conference has plenty of space for all the Syrians who are keen on their Syria’s security, stability and future. Minister al-Zou’bi declared and as outlined and directed by H.E. President Al-Assad in person.
The second transitional phase of the solution would, through its national dialogue conference, formulate national charter, which is to be put into popular referendum with a new government, which has wide authorities even according to article 128 of the current constitution, before a new draft constitution is to be voted for in a popular referendum and before new parliamentary elections to take place. ”Syria is your country and Syria is for all Syrians. Come back home and there would be no arrests, ad hoc Red Crescent and Civil Committees will receive and welcome you at border crossings as to contribute to the building of Syria,” said Minister al-Zou’bi in a touchy message to the displaced Syrians abroad.
Syria is the country of civilization; it is established on a 10 thousand year culture of dialogue. The third phase of the National Reconciliation Conference is to crown the success of every Syrian’s victory not against other Syrians, but against foreign and sinister schemes and projects, be it the Turkish, Qatari, Israel, American or whatever. These schemes and projects have indeed failed to down the Syrian State. The Syrian project, the moral, human and civilization one is but to vanquish, and Syria is very soon to emerge out victorious from the crisis.
