Two assailants, as part of the time of terrorism
we are now going through in Israel and ahead of Shabat,
have decided to stab Jews because they are Jews,
entered Rami Levi which is a place where Jews
and Arabs alike shop, and stabbed two residents.
This refugee camp emerged as a result of the Syrian civil war.
Eventually, Syrians who had nowhere else to flee to arrive here.
Lately, the camp became much bigger. This is the place
where people can live their lives away from the war
because here it is quiet. We trust the military,
as far as we're concerned, whatever the army permits is OK;
the army is doing its job well.
I want to tell you that we view the territory of Syria as a sovereign
state and it is strange that many other countries do not,
which prompts this sort of questions. Any incursion into the territory of
a sovereign state would be illegal. It is a fundamental truth.
As far as the question of establishing any independent
territorial identities on the territory of Syria is concerned ― Russian
Federation has been saying this over the past several years:
We see Syria as an independent, sovereign, democratic state in which
representatives of many faiths, religions, etc. can co-habit
and co-exist peacefully. We always underlined
that we see this state as undivided.
