Dr. Faisal Al-Miqdad, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, affirmed that the unilateral Western coercive measures imposed on Syria target the Syrian people, especially children, women and the elderly.

In an interview with the Chinese Xinhua News Agency, Minister Miqdad pointed out that China is helping Syria out of the principle of equal relations between countries in the service of peoples' issues and the future of the world, especially in establishing international peace and security, unlike the United States, which imposes conditions even on humanitarian organizations that work to provide support and assistance. in crises.

Minister Miqdad indicated that the United States, through its support for militias linked to it in northeastern Syria, is stealing Syrian oil, wheat and cotton and is preventing any kind of development there.

Miqdad stressed that Americans' talk about democracy aims to mislead and increase division in the international community and restore hegemony over the countries of the world under the pretext of democracy, indicating that the United States claims to be the bulwark of democracy, but the democracy it follows has many flaws and is not real.

In response to a question about the United States' suspicion of democracy in China, Miqdad affirmed that China practices a fair and equitable internal policy for all members of Chinese society and follows a genuine democratic policy in its relations with other countries.
