Syria slams Turkish Government’s request to Deploy Patriot Missiles on Syrian-Turkish Borders

 

DAMASCUS, (ST) – The Syrian government condemns the Turkish government’s provocative step as regards the deployment of  NATO’s Patriot missile system near the Syrian-Turkish borders, an official source at the Foreign and Expatriates Ministry said on Friday.

“the move aims at deluding the public opinion and showing that there is danger coming from Syria’, added the source.

“Erdogan’s government has mobilized units of the Turkish army to the Syrian-Turkish borders and opened the Turkish lands to train and arm thousands of Syrian and non-Syrian terrorists and allowing them to enter Syria,”noted the source.

“Erdogan’s government alone is responsible for militarizing the border areas, escalating tension and harming the interests of the Syrian and Turkish peoples,”the source made it clear.

Needless to say that Syria seeks the best ties with the Turkish people and respects the sovereignty of the Turkish lands .

Hence,there is no reason for escalating tension on borders,underlined the source.
