Al-Jaafari: Syria’s Victories over Terrorism Will Help Retreat Its Threats on Level of the World

By Staff, Agencies

Syria’s permanent representative to the UN, Bashar al-Jaafari, said on Thursday that Syria, in cooperation with its allies, has achieved important victories over terrorism.

“Syria made important victories over terrorism although the Syrian people paid the price as many countries, some of which are permanent members of the UN Security Council, have been supporting terrorism,” al-Jaafari said.

He also noted at UNSC session that such victories will make important reflections on retracting world terrorism.

He went on to say that some states believe that their economic and military dominance would give them the right to determine destiny of other member countries, and this threatens to make the destiny of UN similar to the destiny of the League of Nations.

“All should seriously deal with the dangers of escalating threats of international terrorism, imposing economic blockade on the states and increasing practices outside the framework of the international legitimacy,” al-Jaafari said.

He wondered why the Security Council fails to implement its resolutions related to combating terrorism and abstains from punishing courtiers which continue supporting Jabhat al-Nusra terrorist organization in Syria.

“We are surprised with the silence of the Security Council about the aggression practices and military occupation perpetrated by the US, French, British and Turkish forces in Syria,” al-Jaafari added.

He also wondered why Security Council is silent towards the ‘Israeli’ continued occupation of Palestine and the Syrian Golan.
