Foreign Secretary condemns Syrian regime's aerial attacks on Lebanon
Foreign Secretary condemns Syrian regime鈥檚 aerial attacks on northern Lebanon yesterday and says Syria must respect Lebanon鈥檚 sovereignty
Commenting on Syrian regime鈥檚 aerial attacks on northern Lebanon yesterday, the Foreign Secretary, William Hague said:
I condemn the Syrian regime鈥檚 aerial attack on northern areas of Lebanon yesterday.
The Syrian regime has demonstrated once again its disregard for international law and the security of its neighbours. The longer the conflict in Syria goes on, the greater the risks to stability in Lebanon and the wider region. Syria must respect Lebanon鈥檚 sovereignty and territorial integrity
We are working with our partners in the international community to increase our efforts to bring an end to the violence.
