Turkey calls on UNSC to adopt immediate measures against Israel’s expansionist actions in Syria
NEW YORK, Mar.8, (ST)-Turkey’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Ahmet Yildiz, has called on the UN Security Council to adopt immediate and decisive measures against Israel’s expansionist and destabilizing actions in Syria.
Anadolu Agency quoted Ambassador Yildiz as saying during the UN Security Council session on chemical weapons in Syria yesterday: “We condemn the ongoing Israeli military incursion into Syrian territory, and we call on the Security Council to adopt immediate and decisive measures against Israel’s expansionist and destabilizing actions.”
He indicated that these actions obstacles the stability of the situation in Syria.
On the other hand, Yildiz expressed satisfaction with Syria’s cooperation with the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons to completely eliminate chemical weapons from the region, noting that this step taken by the Syrian government represents once again a historic opportunity to close the chemical weapons file for everyone.
