Syrian opposition urges Armenians to maintain neutrality during armed clashes
Yerevan/Mediamax/. Free Syrian Army made a statement today according
to which it urges the Armenians living in the country to take a
neutral position not getting involved in the armed clashes between
oppositional and governmental forces.
Mediamax was informed about this from a Damascus source which
preferred to remain anonymous for security reasons.
According to the source, the statement made by the opposition
statement resulted from the circumstance that recent armed clashes
reached up to Armenian districts.
"The statement can be referred to not as a threat against Armenians
but as a warning. The opposition is likely to think that Armenians of
Aleppo and other cities joined the armed clashes and supported the
governmental troops", the source noted.
Meanwhile, Damascus assures that Armenians have maintained absolute
neutrality over this time and only followed the developments.
"There is no threat to Armenians in the statement. It just points out
the possible outcomes of Armenians' participation in the battles", the
source noted.
According to it, it's already about a week that the situation in the
central districts of Damascus have been peaceful.
