Alternattiva Demokratika has urged the government to strongly condemn the Syrian regime led by Bashar al-Assad.
Spokesman on EU and International Affairs Arnold Cassola said the Syrian government had turned against its own people and was committing horrendous atrocities on innocent and unarmed civilians, including senior citizens, women and children.
"The Maltese government should use all its influence in the EU and the UN to bring about a strong condemnation of the brutal and heartless Assad regime."
Chairman Michael Briguglio said AD supported the democratic opposition forces in Syria and other countries led by brutal dictatorships, and urged the EU to actively support them.
