Syrian
President Bashar al-Assad says “certain Western countries” still
support, directly or indirectly, terrorist organizations and groups
in Syria despite the fact that this wrong policy has already
backfired on their governments and people.
The
Syrian president made the comments in a meeting with an Italian
parliamentary delegation headed by Mario Romani, a member of the
Senate of the Republic, in the capital Damascus on Sunday, Syria's
official news agency, SANA, reported.
President
Assad said such visits by the European delegations to Syria, with the
aim of getting acquainted with the facts on the ground, could play a
significant role in raising the awareness of the Western public
opinion about the realities of the crisis in Syria and expose the
lies told by the Western mass media in this regard.
The
Italian delegation had visited a number of areas in Syria in an
attempt to obtain firsthand experience of what the situation was like
in the war-torn country before meeting with the Syrian president.
