Syrian Ambassador Meets Berri, Deems as 'Myth' Claims Hizbullah is Fighting in Syria
Syrian Ambassador to Lebanon Ali Abdul Karim Ali slammed on Monday claims that Hizbullah is sending fighters to Syria.
He deemed as a “myth” such allegations, accusing the media of distorting the facts in this issue.
He made his remarks after holding talks at Ain el-Tineh with Speaker Nabih Berri.
“The Syrian border villages include Lebanese and Syrian residents, so we must accept it when some Lebanese confront terrorists in order to defend themselves,” continued Ali.
“Syria is keen on its people and its army and institutions do not need support financially or through fighters and arms,” he declared.
“Those funding and arming the gunmen need to cease their actions in order for the crisis to end,” Ali stressed.
He added that Syria will be victorious in the end and “those banking on the collapse of Syria, the resistance in the region, and the Palestinian cause will fail.”
