MP: Any military action against Damascus will not be limited to Syria

Chairman of Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Broujerdi said Zionist regime officials fully understand that any military action against Damascus will not be limited to Syria but it will trigger an all-out war in the region.

Making the remark in a press conference to outline the achievements of his recent visit to Syria, he said that given the failure of the Zionist regime in its last wars against Hizbullah it has no energy to engage itself in another one presently.

Stressing that Syria is in the focal point of resistance against the Zionist regime, he said the US and its allies are mobilizing all their financial and political sources to transform its political structure in order to benefit the Zionist regime.

Broujerdi stated that the US and a number of western countries, contrary to all their claims of fighting terrorism, are dispatching armed terrorists from 23 world countries to massacre the Syrian nation and destroy its infrastructures.

He said attempts to ruin Syria’s infrastructures especially the military ones proves the Zionist regime’s direct involvement in war there.

He reiterated that the US has recently opened a new front against Syria along the Jordanian border to provide training and arms to terrorists, adding that opening a new war front indicates that the US feels defeated in changing political system in that country.

Turning to a recent meeting called “friends of Syria” in Turkey, he said it hosted enemies of Syria with only 11 countries participating in it instead of the previous 100. Such a move indicates the gradual decline of the support for anti-Syria forces worldwide, he added.

Asked to comment on ways Iran and Russia are supporting the Syrian government, he said given the fact the Syrian crisis mainly includes terrorist operations and street wars, the capacity and potential of Syrian army is untouched yet so the country is practically in no need of military aid by other countries.

The parliamentarian dismissed claims of military support of Iran and Russia for Syria as a propaganda war and said the US is fabricating such news to justify its own failures.
