Keeping to the path towards sovereignty, territorial integrity

There was a corrective movement in Syria on November 16 1970.

The movement was a landmark event in the history of Syria as it reflected the desire of Syrians to achieve the independence of the country and build an independent new society.

Since the movement, the Syrian people have steadily taken the road of building a new society for independence against imperialism for over the past 50 years.

But the road was never smooth. Hostile forces resorted to every possible means and method to check their advance.

However, no force could hinder them from advancing their just cause.

History always stands for justice.

While waging a fierce struggle to defend the sovereignty of the country and nation by overcoming all challenges of hostile forces for five decades, the Syrian people could take the road of national prosperity, which constitutes a clear proof of the validity and vitality of the movement.

Even today, the Syrian people are steadily advancing along the road of justice they chose through all challenges and difficulties.

This year alone, the Syrian army has continued to make military achievements in the anti-terror war.

Government troops have seized control over the most part of Idlib province and recaptured all the areas around the Damascus-Aleppo highway of great strategic importance to realize its absolute control over the road and liberated many cities and villages in the northwestern part of Aleppo province this year.

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, in a recent televised speech, expressed his firm will not to suspend the anti-terror war as he referred to the marked achievements made by its army.

The struggle of the Syrian service personnel and people to smash the vicious moves of hostile forces is winning support from the international community.
