'New page is being written in the history,' says country's foreign ministry

The Syrian foreign ministry issued a statement, in which it said “A new page is being written in the history of Syria” today with the country having endured nearly 14 years of civil war.

In a post on X, it said, “Syrian brothers Today, a new page is being written in the history of Syria, to inaugurate a national covenant and charter that unites the word of the Syrians, unites them and does not divide them, in order to build one homeland in which justice and equality prevail and in which everyone enjoys all rights and duties, far from one opinion. And citizenship is the basis.”

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of the Syrian Arab Republic and its diplomatic missions abroad will remain committed to serving all fellow citizens and managing their affairs, based on the trust they bear in representing the Syrian people, and that the homeland remains supreme,” the post read.
