Cairo, Foreign and Expatriates Minister, Fayssal Mikdad, affirmed that the United States' unlimited support for the Israeli occupation, and its thwarting of all attempts by the UN Security Council to stop its continuing aggression against the Palestinian people in Gaza Strip prove its partnership in committing these crimes. Mikdad, in a statement today during the meeting of the Arab League Council at the ministerial level in Cairo, expressed regret that the lives of innocent people who are daily killed in Gaza have not moved the conscience of the countries that support the entity and are partners with it regarding the genocide crimes it commits. 'Neither aggression which amounted to 152 days, nor the number of victims, including martyrs and wounded, which became tens of thousands, nor the amount of bombs and explosives used in the aggression, which amounted to thousands of tons, stirred the consciences of the countries that support the Zionist entity and are partners in its crimes, led by the United States of America,' Mikdad added. He affirmed that while we are certain of Washington's unlimited support for its ally 'Israel,' and it will never allow the issuance of any international resolution that obstructs the brutal Israeli aggression, the 'veto' used against the recent Arab draft resolution submitted by our brothers in Algeria before the Security Council on behalf of the Arab League group, which represented the minimum acceptable level for a ceasefire and an end to the aggression, and its failure of a draft presidential statement regarding Al-Rashid Street massacre, which claimed the lives of about 1,000 Palestinians, both martyred and wounded, as they were waiting to receive humanitarian aid, which constitutes a witness war crime, all are the best evidence of the United States' partnership and its coverage of Israel's violations of the rules of international law. Mikdad added that Syria faces big challenges represented by the presence of terrorist groups on parts of its territory, in addition to the Amer ican and Turkish occupation forces in the north and northeast of the country, in addition, the illegal unilateral coercive economic measures imposed by the United States and its Western allies on the Syrian people. These measures have become a weapon that these countries regularly use against all countries and peoples that reject Western pressures and dictates, and do not follow the approach and path set for them. 'Those illegal measures now constitute, in addition to the presence of the Turkish and American occupation forces, the main stumbling block in the face of Syria's efforts to rebuild and implement economic recovery projects,' Mikdad said, expressing Syria's aspiration for the support of the Arab brothers to break the illegal Western economic siege on Syria.
