Damascus, SANA- Defense Minister, Major General, Murhaf Abu Qasra, said on Monday that the image and reputation of the former Syrian army were distorted due to the crimes it committed against the Syrian people… today, we are seeking to mend this gap between the army and the people.
“We have met with some 130 military factions to discuss the new structure of the army and achieved great success in integrating them into the Defense Ministry. We will not allow any armed group to stay outside the authority of the Ministry,” Major General Abu Qasra told al-Ikhbariya TV in an interview.
“We will establish an army with national military doctrine to protect the Syrian people,” General Abu Qasra said.
