Head of the Legal Committee Haitham al-Maleh handed a memorandum to the Australian ambassador to Egypt protesting against remarks made by Australia’s foreign minister who attributed the tragedy of the Syrian refugees to ISIS, ignoring the real cause of a terrorism which is the Assad regime.
“While such statements offend the Syrian revolution and the Syrian struggle for freedom against a regime whose brutality and terror are unprecedented, they totally ignore the reality of the situation in Syria,” Maleh said.
Australia’s Foreign Minister Julie Bishop told The Australian newspaper that ISIS is driving hundreds of thousands of refugees to go to Europe. (Source: Syrian Coalition)
