Sabbagh receives delegation representing the Italian Casa Pound party

DAMASCUS, May.23, (ST)-Today, the Speaker of the People’s Assembly [Parliament], Hamoudah Sabbagh, received a delegation representing the European Front for the Defense of Syria [the Italian Casa Pound party].

During the meeting, Sabbagh stressed the importance of the role played by the delegation in defending Syria and conveying the reality of the events that are going on on the ground to the world public opinion.

“Syria’s decision is independent and stems from the interests of its people and their confidence in its leadership represented by President Bashar Al-Assad,” he said.

The Speaker referred to the gradual return of normal life to all services and living facilities in Syria, which began to recover from the effects of the war that was imposed on it, adding that the unjust sanctions and unilateral coercive measures imposed on Syria will not undermine the resilience of the Syrian people.

For his part, the head of the Italian delegation, Gianluca Iannone, who chairs the “Casa Pound” party, expressed solidarity and support to the Syrian people and leadership, stressing that the members of the delegation will spare no effort to show the disadvantages of the political, economic and scientific blockade that Syria suffers from.

He added that the European general policy is seeking to isolate Syria, while the majority of European citizens do not support this policy.

Iannone concluded by saying that today’s meeting proves the delegation’s solidarity with Syria until reaching the final victory and eliminating all forms of the blockade imposed on it.
