On 81 anniversary of separating Alexandretta , Syrians have the right to restore lands no matter how long it takes
81 years have passed since the crime of skinning Alexandretta from the motherland Syria, but this sinister memory is still alive in the conscience of the Syrians who are committed to restoring their rights and recovering every inch of the soil of their land, no matter how long it takes.
The plot to plunder Alexandretta in 1939 due to its wealth was carried out after the falsification of facts under a tripartite agreement between Turkey and the French and British occupations at that time. The conspiracy is still clearly present in our minds especially with the attempts of the current Turkish regime led by Recep Tayyip Erdogan to redraw the same scenario through its support of terrorist organizations and its aggression on Syrian territory.
The ominous tripartite agreement was made as a kind of bribe in exchange for Turkey standing by the allies in World War II. However, Alexandretta's usurption did not gain the recognition of the UN League nor later the United Nations, which means that from the international point of view this area will remain Syrian territory.
