March 14 Urges International Community to ‘Take Necessary Measures to Halt Bloodshed in Syria’
The March 14 General Secretariat condemned on Wednesday “the massacres against the Syrian people,” while saluting their perseverance against “brutality”.
It urged in a statement after its weekly meeting “the international community to take the necessary procedures to stop the bloodshed against Syrian civilians.”
It called on the Arab League to hold an emergency meeting “to put an end to the Syrian people’s tragedy.”
It also warned on Wednesday against carrying on linking Lebanon to the Syrian regime “and its bloody and oppressive practices.”
“Lebanon’s position at the United Nations Security Council must meet the Lebanese and Syrian people’s aspirations for freedom and dignity given their sacrifices against the oppression,” it said.
“The Lebanese and Syrians have a joint history, future, and cause, which is that of freedom and democracy in Syria and independence, freedom, and democracy in Lebanon,” it added.
The statement noted that the two peoples are seeking to establish better ties in order to pave the way for a new Arab system that ensures the stability, development, and security of all Arabs.
Furthermore, the March 14 General Secretariat renewed its support for the Syrian people in its plight against the regime’s crackdown against protestors.
