The US & its allies use suspicious media outlets to distort image of Syrian state

Damascus (ST): The US and its Western allies have been employing mass media to publish articles based on fabricated information to mislead the world public opinion and direct groundless accusations to distort the image of the Syrian state and its institutions claiming that Syria does not abide by the agreement which bans the use of Chemical weapons.

Syria joined the treaty which bans chemical weapons in 2013, destroyed all its chemical storage and destroyed all production facilities in an ideal and unprecedented way under the supervision and recognition of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) under very difficult and complicated circumstances resulting from the war against terrorism.

Syria has also repeatedly denounced the use of chemical weapons by anyone and under any circumstances. The US and its Western allies have been employing mass media systematically to publish articles based on fabricated information in parallel with other information mentioned in the reports of two suspicious organizations that were established for devastating purposes under the support of some western intelligence circles.

A group of mercenary journalists adopted the fabricated information mentioned by the two suspicious organizations to direct baseless accusations to distort the image of the Syrian state and its institutions through misleading world public opinion concerning the alleged non-abidance of Syria to the treaty that bans chemical weapons.

The politicization of the OPCW has led it to issue non-professional reports that lack tangible evidence. The failure of the attempts made by states hostile to Syria to use the OPCW as a platform to achieve colonialist objectives required fabricating misleading information with aim of giving credibility to the non-professional and misleading reports issued against Syria.

The aim of the media campaign against Syria aims to cover the crimes committed by terrorist organizations and justify the aggressive acts perpetrated by the US and its allies in 2017 and 2018 and to serve the future US political agenda.

The publishing of such misleading articles discloses the blind bias towards the states hostile to Syria, especially the US and Israel as the US is the only state which still possesses chemical weapons. Moreover, these suspicious media outlets completely ignore the fact that Israel possesses an arsenal of chemical and nuclear weapons that constitute a threat to international security and peace in the world as a whole.

Experts, who had previously worked at the OPCW, presented testimonies that all the accusations fabricated against Syria aimed to implement US and Western political agendas.
