Grospič: Turkish-US agreement on establishing so-called “safe zone” in Syria is criminal act

The Turkish-US agreement on establishing the so-called “Safe Zone” in Syria is a criminal and abnormal act, Head of the Czech Parliamentary Group for Friendship with Syria Stanislav Grospič asserted, adding that Washington and Ankara have no right to threaten Syria’s territorial integrity.

In a statement to SANA reporter in Prague on Monday, Grospič said that the Turkish and the US presence on the Syrian territories is illegitimate and unjustified under any pretext and that they have no right to threaten Syria’s territorial integrity, determine the issues on behalf of the Syrian people or to carry out any operation on the Syrian territories without the approval of the Syrian Government.

Grospič added that the Turkish and the US occupations are also involved in supporting terrorism in Syria and therefore they shoulder the responsibility for prolonging the crisis in the country.

The Syrian people deserve to live in peace and to reconstruct their country with no the need to the Turks and the Americans in this process, Grospič noted.
