| Juppe Says Syrian Opposition Must Get Organized |
| 2011-11-18 |
| [An Nahar] The Syrian National Council opposed to the regime of Bashir al-Assad needs to be better organized before any official recognition of it, Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said Thursday. "The SNC must get organized," Juppe told RMC radio, excluding immediate official recognition of the confederation of most anti-Assad groups protesting Assad's regime in Syria. "We have contacts with them, I saw Mr. Burhan Ghaliun in Gay Paree, who's the president. We help them, we have contact and we encourage them to get organized," he added. The CNS has so far only been officially recognized by the new post-Qadaffy ...a reminder that a single man with an idea can change an entire nation, usually for the worse... Libyan authorities. Juppe hit out again at the Damascus ...Capital of the last overtly fascist regime in the world... regime, saying that "the brutal, savage repression being carried out for months cannot continue." He hailed the "turning point" of "neighboring countries realizing that you can no longer trust Bashir al-Assad" after the Arab League ...an organization of Arabic-speaking states with 22 member countries and four observers. The League tries to achieve Arab consensus on issues, which usually leaves them doing nothing but a bit of grimacing and mustache cursing... voted to suspend Syria over the bloody suppression of protests. Given permanent U.N. Security Council member Russia's opposition to sanctions on the Syrian regime, Juppe said La Belle France was trying to get a resolution passed by the U.N.'s General Assembly. "We've drawn up a draft resolution at the United Nations ...an international organization whose stated aims of facilitating interational security involves making sure that nobody with live ammo is offended unless it's a civilized country... General Assembly calling for an end to the repression and the beginning of a reform process," he said. La Belle France on Wednesday said it was recalling its ambassador to Damascus after French and other nations' diplomatic missions were attacked by pro-Assad mobs. Arab leaders on the same day gave Assad three days to halt his "bloody repression" of anti-regime protests the U.N. says has killed more than 3,500 people, or risk sanctions. |
