Alwaght- Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Muallem has warned his country will confront any foreign aggressors following reports emerged that the Saudi regime and Turkey are considering sending troops to Syria.
Muallem, who is also the Deputy Prime Minister, made the remarks at an international news conference in the Syrian capital, Damascus, on Saturday.
In response to a question on Saudi regime’s announcement that it was ready to send troops to Syria, al-Moallem said the Saudi statements did not come out of the blue, but came in natural response to demands based on research centers in the US and the US Secretary of Defense’s statements to send ground troops to fight ISIS. He noted that the US doesn’t want to cooperate with the Syrian army that is fighting ISIS, adding that “the question to be asked is ‘What has Saudi Arabia done in Yemen? Has it succeeded?’ It has inflicted total destruction.”
This announcement shows that Saudi Arabia is implementing the US will, said al-Moallem, adding that “it seems that after the victories of the Syrian armed forces and its allies , the conspirators and financers have got fed up with their tools on the ground who are reeling, and that they decided to get involved themselves.”
Al-Moallem, however, ruled out such a move, but still recalled “their crazy decisions made not only against Yemen but also regarding other areas,” noting that the mutual visits made by Erdogan and his Prime Minister and Chief of Staff to Riyadh indicate that “there is something being plotted under U.S. patronage.”
“Any ground intervention in the Syrian territories without the government’s approval would be an act of aggression that has to be confronted, and in that case confrontation will be every Syrian’s duty,” al-Moallem stressed, adding that “Any aggressor will be sent back to their country in wooden boxes.”
He noted that Erdogan has dreams about the Ottoman state and these dreams are fading on the ground, referring to the popular rejection which Erdogan received during his visit to Latin America.
Minister al-Moallem reiterated Syria’s belief that the political solution is the only way to solve the crisis in Syria, noting that “We don’t link between what is taking place on the ground and the political work, and we are working in parallel in the fight against terrorism.”
“This issue is one thing and Geneva conference is another thing,” he added.
Answering a question on when the crisis might come to an end, al-Moallem said as long as there are conspirators, who are still willing to spend their peoples’ money on armed groups, no one can say for how long, adding “However, with the army’s achievements, we are moving towards the finish line of the crisis whether they like it or not.”
The Foreign Minister called on those who haven’t yet dropped their arms to go back to their senses and get back on the right track as they still have the chance because the Syrian army is able to win in any area.
