On a question on the political solution and the consultative meetings held recently in Moscow, al-Hilal clarified that Syria since the beginning of the crisis has called for dialogue among the Syrians to solve the crisis it has affirmed that the political solution is the only way to solve it, asserting that Russia and other friendly countries supported the Syrian demand, but the enemies of Syria continued their support, finance and arming the terrorist organizations for prolonging the war against the Syrian people in order to destroy and fragment it and kill its people.

The Assistant Regional Secretary General said that the so-called alliance against terrorism led by Washington is not serious in fighting it and If Washington and its allies were serious in combating terrorism they would have to coordinate with the Syrian government whose army is fighting this terrorism.

In a relevant context, al-Hilal reiterated, in a lecture addressed at the International Relations Institute in Havana, Syria’s commitment to the firm national and pan-Arab principles in facing all the colonial projects.

He stressed that the biggest beneficiary of the aggression on Syria is Israel which directly engaged in the war on Syria.
