BRASILIA, (ST)_ “We are convinced that Syria, leadership and people, will come out victorious, strong and united from ongoing crisis,” Socorro Gomes, the President of World Peace Council and Brazilian Center for the Solidarity with the Peoples and the Struggle for Peace (CEBRAPAZ) said.
In an exclusive interview with the Syria Times in Brazil, Gomes pointed out that the defense of the sovereignty of Syrian Arab Republic is but the ”duty of all who believe in the principles of the right of the people to self-determination” and the only ”guarantee of Peace”.
Gomes stressed that the Brazilian people have great respect for the Syrian People and their heroic defense of homeland, asserting that the Syrians face attacks from Western powers, and mercenary groups as to create an atmosphere of terror and horror in Syria.
“The Brazilian Center for the Solidarity with the Peoples and the Struggle for Peace (CEBRAPAZ) considers the Zionist imperialist attack on Syria as an attack against the fundamental principles of peaceful coexistence among nations.”’ Gomes concluded.
The Foreign Relations and National Defence Committee at the Brazilian Parliament organized last Thursday a Symposium entitled: “Brazil in the World: Duties and Responsibilities in the Middle East”. The Participants in the symposium stressed that Syria is targeted by an aggressive attack, because of its stances which reject the dictations of the US and its western and regional allies.
The participants also asserted that Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey are contributing to shedding the Syrian blood in implementation of the western and US plots, calling on these countries to stop supporting terrorism in Syria.
