The Syrian al-Watan newspaper reported on Thursday that revealing the truth in the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri will serve to end the negative repercussions accusing it of the crime has had on Lebanese-Syrian relations.
It said that claims that the truth will result in unrest in Lebanon "is misleading as the truth will instill trust among the Lebanese political powers."
Furthermore, it noted that Prime Minister Saad Hariri's acknowledgement that the false witnesses have harmed Lebanese-Syrian ties "is half the truth," which would be complete by revealing the political powers they are affiliated with.
"The opposition and its allies are working on reaching the second half so that the truth would be complete as it alone can restore unity, stability, and security," the paper added.
