DAMASCUS, (ST)_ Former Lebanese President Emile Lahoud has asserted that Syria is strong and it will come out from this cruel and imported crisis .
Lahoud said in a statement to ” al-Thawra” newspaper :” It is not surprising that the Arab leader President Bashar al-Assad said great and responsible words about the Syrian crisis , and the region. He asserted that President al-Assad has described the situation accurately and objectively when he explained that a global war is launched against Syria because it is the heart of Arabism and the only resistant country in the region.
Lahoud added that president al-Assad , surrounded by his people, is a believer and practitioner of democracy . He also trusted his people in all pivotal issues of the Arab nation.
Regarding the Syrian Army, president al-Assad has been credit given from his people as a leader who does not seek to lead, but is trying to consolidate the concepts of the Arab dignity so it is not surprising for this army to realize those great victories.
Therefore, Lahoud stressed that history will underscore the indelible disgrace of Arabs which appeared clearly through Arab League role. Since, Arab League changed its charter, consequently became too far from any peaceful solution to the Syrian crisis.
On the other hand , history will write the honorable stances of great countries like Russia, China and other BRICS countries which supported the rights of the Middle East countries that were exposed to the most serious attack upon issues of minorities.
Regarding Lebanon, the brother President marked the shameful stance of this neighbor country which distanced itself from the bleeding Syria. He stressed that many Lebanese parties, unfortunately, forgetting that they cannot distance themselves from central national principles especially the main Arab Cause ” Palestine.”
“Congratulations to Syria great leader, people, and army. The victory over terrorism is very close whether the nation’s enemies woke up or continued in their disgrace slumber”. Lahoud concluded.
