US tells Syria: Stop aiding Hezbollah, repect Lebanon’s sovereignty

Share:

During an interview with Radio Sawa on Monday, US Ambassador to Syria Robert Ford said the U.S. has information that the Syrian government is transporting weapons and military equipment to Hezbollah . He called on Syrian leaders to immediately stop aiding Hezbollah and to recognize Lebanon’s sovereignty.

“There is information that arms and military equipment are being transferred to Hezbollah from Syria,” said Ford.

“The American administration is asking Syria to stop military aid to Hezbollah immediately and to recognize Lebanon’s sovereignty in line with friendly relations and respect for each country’s sovereignty,” Ford said.

Ford also spoke about the unrest in Syria, criticized the government over dealing with peaceful protests in a violent manner and urged a dialogue with representatives of the opposition.

“There is no serious political dialogue in Syria despite current popular protests,” he added.

Radio Sawa is an Arabic language radio station funded by the U.S. Congress and the Broadcasting Board of Governors.

Earlier this month the United States imposed sanctions on three senior Syrian officials, Syria’s intelligence agency, and Iran’s Revolutionary Guard following U.S. President Barack Obama’s repeated appeals to the Syrian leadership to end the violent crackdown.

Rights groups say more than 800 people were killed and 8,000 jailed or gone missing in the crackdown on Syrian protestors since mid-March.

    all we get is lip services.

    hundreds have been killed since the start of revolution and all we are getting are stupid sanctions that have no value for the lives of syrian pple and stupid lip service that does nothing other then reflect the hypocritical attitude from the one who is spewing it out.

    i am more then convinced now that Obama has been a stumbling block to freedom in the ME…in order to keep “peace” with Israel.
