Patriarch Yazeji: Syria Facing “Storm” Targeting Entire Region

National

DAMASCUS, (ST) – The ongoing crisis in Syria is but a “storm” targeting the entire region, and Syria will surpass it thanks to the spirit of cooperation and amity among its people, stressed Patriarch Youhanna X Yazeji of Antioch and All East for Greek Orthodox.

 Yazeji’s remarks came during his meeting with Abdul Razzak Talbani, representative of the Iraqi President and members of Damascus Governorate Council who visited the Patriarch to offer him their congratulations on Christmas.

Patriarch Yazeji, who wished the best to all people of the region, expressed hope that the crisis in Syria will come to an end as soon as possible.

“Christmas is a happy occasion to Christians, Moslems, and all sects in Syria,” the patriarch said, pointing out that Syria has been a staunch defender of Arab rights and has offered a lot to the Arabs in general and the Palestinians and Iraqis in particular.

For his part, Luqa al-Khori the Deputy Patriarch said “Christmas comes this year as Syria is passing through critical circumstances caused by West-backed terrorists. We have prayed for the security of Syria where Christians and Moslems live together, fight together and coexist in safety and peace.”
