Syria insists on probe over Qatar’s role in UNDOF abduction, says al-Jaafari
MOSCOW,(ST)_Syria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations has underscored his country’s insistence on conducting an international investigation over Qatar’s role in abducting UN peacekeepers in the Syrian Golan.
Bashar al-Jaafari told the Russian NOVOSTI Agency: “A person from Doha, Qatar’s capital, had called abductors of UN peacekeepers and explained to them what they have to do and how to act.”
This piece of information, he added, is confirmed in an e-mail officially sent by one of the UN mission’s members in Syria to the UN headquarters and forwarded to the UN Secretary General.
Al-Jaafari regretted the UN inaction towards what he raised before the international organization on May 16th in this regard.
“The Qatari intelligence is locked in abducting the UNDOF members in the Syrian Golan,” he said with conviction, stressing that the armed terrorist groups in Golan receive instructions from the Qatari intelligence and help Israel.
Recently, the UNSC adopted a non-binding resolution supporting terrorism in Syria and hindering international efforts being exerted to bring about political solution to the ongoing crisis in it.
The draft resolution was presented by Qatar which funds and supports terrorism in Syria.
