Following earlier attacks this year on Alawite, Druze and Christian communities in Syria the Liberal Party deplore the recent overnight attacks on the Kurdish community in Aleppo.
These attacks include the use of tanks and the military shelling civilian areas.
We call for the UN to take meaningful action to protect the various minorities in the region following the earlier fall of the Syrian regime and we support greater autonomy for the Kurds in the North East, Alawites in the Northwest and Druze in the South East.
The party is concerned that plans for an inclusive government have failed to materialise with just 2 Christian members being appointed to the reformed 119 seat People’s Assembly and stalled attempts to integrate all armed factions in the Syrian military.
We urge the UK government to suspend any financial support for the Syrian republic until it has taken concrete steps to stop attacking their minorities.
