Syria shows that Russia can be overcome – Lithuanian Foreign Ministry

There is no need to fear the “bear” in Ukraine or anywhere else where it causes trouble, the Lithuanian diplomat said.

Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis, who is leaving his post, said that the events in Syria indicate the possibility of defeating Russia in Ukraine.

According to Landsbergis, the news from Syria proves that Russia can be overcome.

“The example of Syria shows that Russia can be driven out and it will come home. The Baltics are right – the West is strong enough to win. We do not need to fear the ‘bear’ in Ukraine or anywhere else where it causes chaos, ” said the Lithuanian diplomat.

Foreign Minister Annalena Bärbock also responded to the situation in Syria.

According to Burbock, “it is impossible to say exactly what is happening in Syria today,” but one thing is clear – for millions of people in Syria, the end of Assad means the first big relief after the endless atrocities committed of his regime. .

The minister emphasized that now the country must not fall into the hands of other radicals – “regardless of the screen they hide.”

“So we call on the parties to the conflict to accept responsibility for all Syrians. This includes the full protection of ethnic and religious minorities such as the Kurds, Alawites or Christians, as well as an inclusive political process that creates a balance between groups,” she said.

Let’s recall that on the morning of December 8, rebel forces in Damascus declared the capital “free” from longtime leader Bashar al-Assad. They said government institutions would remain under the administration of the former prime minister until the formal transfer of power.

On Sunday afternoon, the Russian Foreign Ministry, which is an ally of the Syrian regime, issued a statement saying that Assad had left the presidency and Syria.
