Syrian government promises to prosecute Americans responsible for destabilizing Syria

 

In response to the pledge by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken to hold the Syrian government accountable for "human rights violations and atrocities," Syria stated on Wednesday that the U.S. officials attempting to destabilize Syria must be held accountable.

The American leaders who utilized limitless resources to obliterate Syria and kill its citizens must be held accountable, the Syrian Foreign Ministry declared in a statement.

The report claimed that the armed terrorist organizations "would not have been able to commit massacres against the Syrian people and destroy their infrastructure and civilization" without the funding, assistance, and weapons provided by the United States of America and its Western allies.

The ministry emphasized that with the American military stationed on Syrian territory, lasting peace in Syria was not possible.

In a news release on Monday, Blinken stated that Washington would continue to support international efforts "to guarantee there are consequences for the persistent human rights violations and abuses committed in Syria."

According to the Syrian foreign ministry, "the U.S. Secretary of State, or the ex-secretaries, couldn't wash their hands tainted with Syrians' blood, in addition to the theft of Syrian resources estimated at close to 30 billion dollars [US] that the U.S. should pay to the Syrians.
