ALEPPO. - The reports saying that Syrian opposition armed groups
decided to assign property belonging to Christians are partly true,
Jirair Reisian of the National Primacy of Aleppo of the Armenian
Apostolic Church told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
Reisian noted that Syrian opposition is comprised of different
groups representing radical, very radical and moderately radical
organizations.
Radical groups may assign the property because of religious motives
or based on ideas of radical spiritual leaders.
"However, one can not generalize and say that all opposition groups
are grabbing the property of Christians. Some people are simply trying
to take advantage of the situation," he said.
According to rumors, Syrian rebels decided to assign property belonging
to Christians, including Armenians residing in Syria. In Aleppo the
armed groups grabbed 200 factories belonging to Christians.
They are mainly selling goods to Turkey to buy weapons.
