The Syrian Delegation to Geneva 2

It is important before arriving at the Geneva 2 conference which began on January 22nd , to know who will attend this conference .  It is the Syrian people who sent a delegation to the conference , carrying with it a historical and cultural legacy  of thousands of years . This creative people rejects terrorism because it loves life and believes in coexistence of its population who has no disagreement or differences on the national constants and nationalism.

The Syrians went to Geneva 2 conference searching for a political solution leading to an end to terrorism. Besides, they intended to call those countries which sponsor, support and fund terrorist groups for stopping the escalation of terrorism.

These countries, led by Saudi Arabia and Qatar have no history or cultural heritage to make them proud among the nations. Therefore , they are spiteful countries that banded with other countries which are governed by extremist and Wahhabi groups .

Moreover, the Syrian opposition abroad which is supported by the West and Saudi financiers, doesn’t represent but itself.  From the very beginning of the crisis in Syria, this opposition doesn’t stop calling for the external interference in Syria,  because it cannot face the outcomes of the ballot boxes in Syria .  It is obvious that the external opposition is contradictory theoretically and intellectually, besides it does not have a strategic vision towards the future of the country. And Syrians reject this opposition because it is traitor to the country and people. While the Syrian delegation went to Geneva2 conference confidently because it is undoubtedly strengthened with the support of the Syrian people.

Thus, if the external opposition is really serious in achieving the political process to end the crisis in Syria, then it must declare openly that it fights terrorism. It also must confess that it is against all terrorist factions that hinder any political and peaceful solution in Syria.
