The recent statements by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Prince Faisal bin Farhan, confirm the Kingdom’s firm position regarding Syria, and its support for the political process as the only way towards a solution, along with a refusal to re-engage the Assad regime.
The Syrian Opposition Coalition (SOC) confirms that the Kingdom’s position represents a cornerstone that supports the Syrian people and stands up to those who are trying to promote the normalization of ties with murderers.
The Syrian people will not forget the fraternal and principled positions of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as it stresses the Kingdom’s pivotal role in supporting the political process and political solution in line with the Geneva Communique of 2012 and UN Security Council resolutions.
The Syrian-Saudi relations have a long record and deep historical roots. The Kingdom’s efforts to support the Syrian people since the start of their revolution are well-known and continuing. The SOC is keen to continue developing these brotherly relations so as to contribute to the quest for achieving the aspirations of the Syrian people and restoring their rights.
