DAMASCUS– A Swedish parliamentary delegation regretted their government’s neutral position towards events in Syria, stressing that Sweden is not part of the US system.

The remarks came during a meeting with members of the Committee of Arab and Foreign Relations at the People’s Assembly on Tuesday.

The visiting Swedish Parliament members noted that their visit to Syria is to get acquainted with the situation in it and convey the true picture of events to the Swedish people, referring to the scale of damage caused to the infrastructure due to the terrorist war in the country, SANA reported.

 On the coercive economic measures imposed by the West against the Syrian people, the Swedish MPs affirmed that they are not part of the US system, pointing out that there are countries that have an interest in destabilizing the region through mobilizing media outlets and providing support to the terrorists.

They expressed their regret that the Swedish government keeps a neutral stance towards what is going on in Syria as the extremist thinking is spreading in Europe in an accelerated manner.
