Foreign Ministry: Washington’s tendency to exclude the areas it occupies on the Syrian Jezira from coercive measures is just a cheap American deception of international legitimacy

Damascus (ST): The Foreign and Expatriates Ministry affirmed that the hypocrisy pursued by the US administration, which is involved in the aggression against Syria, by excluding the areas it occupies on the Syrian Jezira from coercive measures, is just a cheap American deception of international legitimacy and the values advocated by the United Nations in all its decisions related to Syria.

The ministry said that Washington’s imposition of the existence of foundling groups and considering them as having authority in the areas it occupies, and the legislation to steal agricultural crops, oil and gas and other Syrian wealth, is to perpetuate a behavior that can thwart the political process to resolve the crisis in Syria.

The Ministry added that the best way to alleviate the suffering of the Syrian people and alleviate the repercussions of the crisis, which Washington was the most prominent party which set it on fire, is only through respect for international legitimacy and UN resolutions, foremost of which is respect for Syria’s sovereignty and the lifting of unfair coercive measures.

The Foreign Ministry pointed out that the American and Western empire of lies no longer deceives anyone, as its illusory projects for freedom, democracy and human rights have been proven false and invalid in more than one place, and here are its criminal activities in its biological warfare laboratories that testify that an empire in which lies and double standards are combined is a direct threat to international security and peace.
