Al-Halqi to Yazigy: clergymen play key role in preserving Syrians’ unity
DAMASCUS,(ST)_Prime Minister has said that the conspirators are trying to target the national economy after failing at the military and political levels.
Dr. Wael al-Halqi has underscored the political outrage over the ongoing crisis in the country which indicates the desire to bring about suitable solutions.
He was speaking as he met with Patriarch Yohn X Yazigy of Antioch and All the East.
According to SANA, the gathering today dealt with the role of Muslim and Christian clergymen in mobilizing capabilities to preserve the Syrian people’s unity through promulgating the culture of love and tolerance as well as explaining the real image of religions.
The premier cited that the current circumstances promote an opportunity for the Syrians to reconsider the economic and educational policies to bolster their steadfastness vis-a`-vis any emergency.
“Government is relentlessly working to ensure the factors of steadfastness,” he said, pointing out that an economic, political, media and social war are being waged against the country.
For his part, the patriarch said: “Despite the circumstances, the Syrians are giving lessons to the others on unity, perseverance in achieving victory, and protecting their homeland.”
He stressed that the three-stage political plan outlined by President Bashar al-Assad is the only outlet to restore peace and security to Syria.
The Patriarch separately met Awqaf (Endowment) Minister and the Republic’s Grand Mufti.
The talks focused on the Takfiri and provocative calls and Fatwas issued to serve the western agenda.
