French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday condemned the recent developments in Syria’s northwestern Idlib province as a “humanitarian scandal”.
“REGIME FORCES ARE NOT FIGHTING AGAINST TERRORISM”
Speaking at a joint news conference along with Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte following a summit in the Italian city of Napoli, Macron said: “The attacks by [Bashar al-] Assad and his supporters are not fight against terrorism but a humanitarian scandal.”
He said the violations of the international humanitarian law and attacks against civilians are unacceptable.
