The Syrian Opposition Coalition (SOC) mourns prominent professor, politician, veteran dissident and thinker Michel Kilo who passed away in France on Monday.
It is a great loss for Syria which lost an intellectual and patriotic powerhouse who fought against tyranny for more than fifty years and whose dream was to see a free and democratic Syria. God willing, the Syrian people will carry on this dream and see it through.
The SOC expresses its sincere condolences to Kilo’s family, friends, readers, and lovers, stressing that Kilos’ struggle and his national, humanitarian stances will remain an example for generations to come.
Verily to Allah we belong, and verily to Him we shall return.
