The Member States of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America – Peoples’ Trade Treaty (ALBA-TCP) express their solidarity with Syria, as well as express their categorical rejection and condemn the violent events reported in Aleppo and other areas of the country, promoted by terrorist groups seeking to attack the constitutional government of President Bashar Al Assad. 

ALBA-TCP calls on the international community to firmly reject – unequivocally and without hesitation – these criminal events that seek to divide and destroy a millenary multicultural society in a country that has had to face and endure a war for over 13 years, fueled by external interests.

The Bolivarian Alliance demands the full respect for the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of this sister Arab nation and the self-determination of the Syrian people, as well as their will and right to live in peace under the system of government of their choice, in strict adherence to the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and the International Law. The unacceptable imperialist interventions in Syria and the entire region have only resulted in death and destruction. 

The member countries of the Alliance reiterate their confidence on the capability of the Syrian people and government to sovereignly build its destiny, without foreign interference and where peace and justice prevail.
