Deputy Foreign and Expatriates Minister Fayssal Mikdad warned that well-known parties are leveling accusations against Syria regarding the use of chemical weapons as a result of the victories achieved by the Syrian Arab army in the fight against terrorism, SANA reports.
In a press conference held on Saturday, Mikdad said that the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) continues to ignore the information provided by Syria on the use of chemical weapons by terrorists in several incidents, which is cause for suspicion and wonder, affirming that Syria has implemented UN Security Council Resolution 2118 on the dismantling Syria’s chemical program despite the very difficult and complex circumstances.
He said that the goal of the propaganda campaign currently being waged against Syria by the US and its allies is not only to provide support to the terrorists, who are using chemical weapons, but also to encourage them to use it again, adding that since the beginning of this year, four incidents of chemical weapons use by terrorists have been uncovered in Suruj in Idlib countryside and Msheirfeh.
