The clashes between friends and national security forces, as well as Israeli attacks, threaten the path of Syria to a peaceful and inclusive political transition, – said Hiari.

The safety and stability in the province of Es-Swaid, as well as in the “post-Assad” Syria, can only be provided through true national reconciliation with the participation of all parties of various Syrian society,-he said.

Greek Foreign Minister Georgos Georgos Herapetritis has strongly condemned all attacks on civilians and religious sites in Syria, including recent attacks on the Greek Catholic Church of St. Michael in Savar and a terrorist attack near the Orthodox Church.

Direct language Herapetritis: “This once again highlights the challenges facing the Christian community in Syria and the need to fully protect all ethnic and religious groups in the United Syria.”

Details: Commenting on the statement of Syria’s transitional administration about the achievement of a local truce and a promise to hold the perpetrators responsible, he stressed that the investigation of the incidents should be transparent, fast and meet international standards.
