Arab Preparatory Meeting to Discuss Launching Popular Campaign for Lifting Coercive Economic Measures Imposed on Syria

BEIRUT, (ST)- Arab preparatory meeting to discuss a plan to launch a popular Arab and international campaign for lifting the unilateral coercive economic measures imposed on Syria, was held on Saturday in Beirut.

“The economic siege imposed on Syria is nothing but part of the global war on the country that has been ongoing for more than eight years to weaken the Syrian people and force it to give up its historic resisting stances and struggle against Zionist-colonialist schemes, said Majdi al-Ma’sarawi on behalf of the General Secretariat of the Arab National Conference and the International Arab Center for Communication and Solidarity, the organizers of the meeting.

al-Ma’sarawi hailed the Syrian-Lebanese fraternal ties, saying that “the Lebanese know well that any damage inflicted on Syria will affect Lebanon’s security, economy, role and position”.

 Rehab Mkahhel, Director General of the International Arab Center for Communication and Solidarity, condemned the coercive economic measures against Syria and presented a work paper that calls on participants in the meeting to form a follow up committee to confront and cancel the coercive measures imposed on Syria.

She said that the committee should include representatives of Arab Popular unions and institutions, noting the need to form regional committees to launch popular campaigns in many countries aiming to lift the coercive economic measures imposed on Syria and to form Arab and international delegations aiming to make solidarity visits to Syria and prepare petitions for Arab and Islamic countries’ governments and for regional organizations in order to cancel their unfair decision on suspending Syria’s membership in these organizations. The campaigns will also aim at calling on Arab Lawyers Union to form an Arab and international legal committee that aims to sue the countries involved in the siege on Syria that violate the UN Charter.
