The document noted that the purpose of the terrorist war, as well as the economic terror against Syria, is to try to consolidate the American occupation of the region. It was underlined that the actions of the USA in Syria go beyond the international law, and they deserve condemnation from the international community.

Syria demands to compensate the heavy losses and the colossal damage, caused to the Syrians from the aggression, unleashed against Syria via the American occupation" - end of quote.

A special focus will be on Syria that ’’recently has been undergoing an especially sophisticated campaign from the Western states" - Polyansky explained and added that Russia is very worried about the on-going politicization of the work of the OPCW, whose reputation has been seriously damaged due to large-scale violations by its own Technical Secretariat on the Syrian chemical dossier. 3 Armenia The Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated that Yerevan wants to resume the constructive negotiations for the final solution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
