Moallem urges respect for Syria’s sovereignty
Moallem says his country stands with any effort aimed at combating terrorists, but says such an effort must “respect” national sovereignty. He thanks countries that refused to break Syrian sovereignty, a reference to US-led airstrikes against the Islamic State.
Syria calls all rebels “terrorists” whether they are moderate or Islamist extremists, and Moallem is doing his best to paint Assad’s regime, which has seen 190,000 people killed in a bloody civil war of three and a half years, as a peace-seeking administration.
