Information Minister Omran al-Zoubi asserted that the Syrian Leadership has been open to any initiative that comes within specific criteria, regulations and values and has been calling for political solution to the crisis in Syria since the beginning of the terrorist war waged against it .

“The components of the political solution to the crisis in Syria are clear, on top fighting terrorism,” al-Zoubi said in an hour long interview with the Syrian Satellite TV on Wednesday evening, adding that “Russia’s efforts are based on the stance of President Vladimir Putin who talked about the importance of establishing regional alliance to fight terrorism”.

The Minister clarified that talking about Russian endeavors to bring points of view closer together is a thing and talking about a direct meeting with Saudis is another one , denying all what have been said about an alleged visit by the head of the country’s National Security Bureau Ali Mamlouk to Saudi Arabia.

Concerning the statements delivered by Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir, al-Zoubi said that the later was arranging communications with the Zionist and Jewish organizations in the US, and his speech is a repetition for previous stances aiming to delude that Saudi Arabia is an effective country.

Al-Jubeir’s statements, he added, contradict with the theme of the political solution to the crisis in Syria, so who talks about a political solution must respect its meaning and priorities which are manifested in fighting terrorism, respecting Syrian sovereignty, stopping interference in other countries’ internal affairs and supporting the Syrian-Syrian dialogue.

Concerning the various opposition sides going to Moscow, he said this step doesn’t come from a vacuum because they receive orders and instructions from those who finance them.

Al-Zoubi affirmed that the crisis in Syria is multilateral, wondering ” how could the crisis in Syria be settled as long as Saudi Arabia continues sending terrorists, arms and money to Syria, the drilled tunnels between Syria and Turkey remain as a mean of flowing ISIS terrorists to Syria, and if Jordan is still allowing gunrunning and terrorists smuggling into Syria.

On the Iranian initiative that has been recently talked about to solve the crisis in Syria, he said that the Iranians are very careful to support Syria and search with it for a solution to the current crisis and fighting terrorism, highlighting that when there is an Iranian initiative, the Iranians themselves will announce it.

With respect to Turkey’s allegations on fighting ISIS terrorist organization, al-Zoubi clarified that the Justice and Development government will not fight terrorism and behaves economically and militarily in the border areas in a way that contradicts all of the international laws.

He continued to say that ISIS and other terrorist groups have used chemical weapons in many places against Syrians, citing tens of examples about the terrorists’ use of chemicals, adding.. the sources of these chemicals, according to verified documents, are from some foreign governments and states.

Al-Zoubi added that recent visit of Foreign Minister Walid Al-Moallem to the Sultanate of Oman came as part of organized regional efforts to fight terrorism, affirming that Oman’s role has ever been positive in Arab-Arab relations.
