In this regard, the Ministry called upon countries supporting terrorism in Syria and the region to take lessons from facts and previous experiences and realize “that the threat emerging from the escalation of the epidemic of terrorism would go beyond the region’s countries to the entire world.”
The most vulnerable to this threat, it warned, would be those countries sponsoring and backing terrorism.
The Ministry stressed that the increasing danger of terrorism in Syria and its escalation recently in Iraq demand intensive international efforts to counter the risk of terrorism without discrimination or double standards, in as much as they put at stake the credibility of the international efforts on counterterrorism and implementing the UN resolutions. “The international community is required today more than any time before to show seriousness in addressing a firm message to the terrorists and the countries backing them that terrorist acts are unjustifiable under any circumstances of reasons,” the Ministry said in its letters.
It renewed warning of the “dire” consequences of terrorism on its backers, stressing that the double standards of some Security Council state members on condemnation of terrorist acts are no longer acceptable.
