Al-Lahham, Al-Halqi to Mauritanian Delegation: Conspiracy against Syria Aims at Fragmenting Arab Nation

DAMASCUS, (ST) – Speaker of the People’s Assembly (PA) Mohammad Jihad al-Lahham has stressed the need to reveal the schemes architected at Western and American Intelligence circles against Arab awareness, nationalism and unity.  

Al-Lahham, who was speaking during a meeting with a visiting delegation representing Mauritanian parties and unions, said the organized terrorism, Syria is facing because of the armed takfiri groups, doesn’t only target Syria, but it aims at fragmenting the entire Arab nation and dominating and stealing its resources.

He affirmed that Arab solidarity is the right way to defeat the conspiracy which aims at undermining the Arab nation’s identity, history, future and moderate Islam.

“Syria is paying expensively for its support to just Arab causes, especially the Palestinian cause, and to the right of resistance forces to liberate the occupied Arab territories,” al-Lahham said.

He added “Syria is pressing ahead with fighting terrorist groups so as to restore security and stability to the homeland and, at the same time, is adherent to implementing the proposed political program to solve the crisis in the country.”

The PA Speaker pointed out that starting from its belief in attaining a secure and peaceful way out of the crisis, Syria has accepted to participate in the international conference on Syria, scheduled to be held in Geneva, since the international plan for political solution was announced.

“But the American administration has kept issuing contradictory statements to procrastinate in obtaining a solution and prolong the crisis,” al-Lahham said, stressing that “Syria will attain victory and emerge stronger from the crisis thanks to the steadfastness of its people and the sacrifices of its army.”

For his part, Secretary General of the Mauritanian Democratic Nationalist Unity Party, Mahfouz Wild el-Aziz, asserted that the people of Mauritania “have become aware of the conspiracy hatched against Syria after the misleading media campaign by some inciting TV channels had been uncovered.”   

Wild el-Aziz said that the delegation visited Syria to be briefed on the reality of events in the country, convey a right image about what is going on in the country and voice solidarity with the Syrian people.

The Mauritanian official affirmed that the Arab nation is being exposed to a conspiracy aiming at creating a state of chaos and internal conflicts in the region in order to weaken it and allowing the Zionist entity to be the only dominating power in the region.

“Syria is facing this global war for being the staunch defender of Arab nationalism and just Arab causes, particularly the Palestinian cause,’ Wild el-Aziz said.

Role of national Arab parties in confronting anti-Arab identity conspiracy affirmed

In the same context, Prime Minster Wael al-Halqi received members of the Mauritanian delegation and discussed with them the situation in Syria.

The Premier affirmed the important role that can be played by national Arab parties in confronting the heinous global conspiracy targeting the Arab identity, thinking and nationalism through distorting the image of real moderate and tolerant Islam and through the organized cultural and media invasion.

The current era needs the mobilization of all national Arab parties’ efforts to fortify Arab societies, avoid mad civil wars and confront the US-Zionist schemes in the Arab region.

Al-Halqi hailed the support of Arab parties, organizations and vocational unions to the Syrian people against the global war and terrorism.

He reiterated that the Syrian government deals positively with all initiatives to solve the crisis peacefully without interference in the internal affairs of the Syrian people, who have chosen to fight terrorism and implement the political program to solve the crisis in Syria by the Syrians themselves on the Syrian land.  

For their parts, member of the visiting delegation affirmed that Syria is fighting terrorism on behalf of all the Arabs, pointing out that the ongoing events in the Arab homeland aim at fragmenting the Arab nation and creating sedition among sects and religions in order to serve the Zionist entity’s interests.

They expressed confidence that Syria will attain victory soon because of the steadfastness of the Syrian people and the defeat of the anti-Syria misleading media campaign.
