Foreign and Expatriates Ministry said the United Arab Emirates has joined the club of the countries conspiring against Syria and followed suit by deciding to prevent a Syrian presidential vote from taking place on its land.
“It is little wonder that the rage and conspiring of this club would have swollen over the victories of the Syrian people and the achievements of the armed forces,” the Ministry said in a statement.
“We were not surprised by this Emirati decision given that the UAE is member of the ‘Enemies of Syria’ group,” it added, referring to the anti-Syria so-called “Friends of Syria” group that also includes Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and the United States.
The statement lambasted the UAE for its people not having at any point in their history practiced democracy through the ballot boxes.
The Ministry dismissed as “denounced” the UAE’s decision to deprive over 30,000 Syrian nationals who have registered their names in the electors’ lists of their natural right to elect who is going to lead them in the future.
This decision, which came a few hours before balloting at the Syrian embassies abroad starts, the Ministry reiterated, is “condemned and reflects those countries’ dismay and anxiety over the results of these elections”.
