The Syrian Prime Minister , Wael Al Halqi warned the West that their country will become ” the graveyard of invaders ” in the event that there is any military intervention .
“Syria ( … ) will surprise the aggressors as it did during the [ Arab-Israeli ] war on October [ 1973 ] and will be the graveyard of invaders. We’re not going to allow colonialists frighten us by threats , and no force in the world can overcome it,“ assured the prime minister, according to state television.
Faced with mounting international pressure pointing to an imminent attack , the Prime Minister has said that Syria ” will emerge from the crisis stronger .”
Al Halqi stressed that his country will face ” the lies of the false accusations of the West with the Syrian people’s resistance , cohesion and support of the Army ” , according to statements released by the official news agency Sana.
In his speech, he blamed the U.S. , Israel and Western countries for “creating lies and false arguments as the use of chemical weapons” to launch an attack . In his view, the possible intervention is due to ” the resistance of the Syrians and the brave Army continuous victories against the terrorists.”
Al Halqi noted that “countries that hit the drums of war against Syria are the same who committed the massacres in Iraq , Lebanon and other nations.”
The prime minister has accused these countries of ” Arab blood absorbed by stealing their wealth ” and blamed the United States and Israel of implementing ” terrorism and Al Qaeda in the world.”
In this regard , he added that extremist groups like Al Nusra Front , fighting the Syrian regime , are ” the arm of Washington and Israel in the region.” In his opinion, the aim of all this offensive is ” to distract the Arab peoples with internal conflicts and diverting Syria’s absurd line of resistance (against Israel) .”
The regime of Bashar Assad has also taken advantage of the Security Council meeting on Wednesday to present ” evidence ” allegedly linked to the opposition to chemical attack . ”
We have delivered to the United Nations all the evidence and documents that show that was the opposition , not the state, which used chemical weapons ” , told reporters Syrian Deputy Foreign Affairs , Faisal Miqdad , following discussions with officials UN .
Miqdad has lambasted the West , in particular the United States , France and United Kingdom, ruling that these three countries helped “terrorists” to use chemical weapons in the Syrian conflict .
