DAMASCUS, (ST)- Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Faysal al-Mikdad has stressed that the Palestinian cause will continue to be Syria’s main cause, despite the huge western pressure and the terrorist war targeting the country.

Al-Mikdad, who made the remarks on Saturday during his meeting with a delegation  representing the executive committee of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) led by Azam al-Ahmad, reiterated the need to  enhance the unity of the Palestinians in the face of the American-Zionist aggression.

He hailed the struggle of the Palestinian people against occupation and condemned the Israeli recent attacks targeting al-Aqsa Mosque.

 On his part, Azzam reviewed the aggressive practices of the Israeli occupation against the Palestinians and their lands, including the policies of land annexation, settlement building and house demolition.

He affirmed the Palestinian people’s support for the Syrian people, army and leadership, expressing hope that Syria will recover from terrorism as soon as possible, because “this will undoubtedly serve the interests of the Palestinian cause”.
