Syrian community in Sweden commemorates October War and Correctionist Movement

The Syrian community in Sweden commemorated the anniversary of the October Liberation War and the Correctionist  Movement through a celebration organized by the National Union of Syrian Expatriates in Sweden and Europe at the People’s House Center in the Halunda area in Stockholm.

The Chargé d’Affairs, Counselor Minister Dr. Tamim Malko, stressed in a speech during the celebration that the October liberation war was one of the most important achievements of the Correctionist Movement that restored the Arabs’ confidence in their abilities and raised awareness of Syria’s steadfastness and resistance.

Malko noted that Syria’s steadfastness and its patriotic  stances prompted its enemies to mobilize their energies, money, mercenaries and media to launch a barbaric terrorist war targeting a state and people.

Malko pointed out that the past years have demonstrated the strength and steadfastness of the great Syrian Arab people and their insistence on victory, along with the steadfastness of state institutions in its various sectors, despite the unjust siege and the immoral and inhumane unilateral coercive measures imposed on Syria.

In his turn, the head of the National Union of Syrian Expatriates in Sweden and Europe, Dr. Kabi Isho, referred in his speech to the meanings and symbolism of these two great occasions in the modern history of Syria, noting the achievements of the Correctionist Movement that made Syria the keystone of the region.

Isho praised the Syrian Arab Army’s heroism and victories in the October Liberation War, as well as the victories it is now achieving in the face of the fierce terrorist war imposed on Syria.

The celebration included screening a documentary film and delivering speeches and poems of the participants.
