Syria to tackle developments in an objective way, minister says

Syria's Minister of Information Mehdi Dakhlullah said Tuesday that Syria will keep its firm stances and deal with developments in an objective and flexible way. "Pressures Syria is exposed to are the result of Syria's rejection of occupation, aggression and hegemony policies in this region and in any part of the world," he said.

"Syrian Cabinet discussed latest developments in light of the UN Security Council resolution 1636, reviewing efforts being exerted by the political leadership to tackle pressures on Syria," Minister Dakhlullah told reporters following a Cabinet weekly session.
