Renewing their demands to apply political transition and implement Resolution No. 2254 | Tens of residents gather in Al-Karamah square

Al-Suwaidaa province: Tens of residents have gathered in Al-Karama square in Al-Suwaidaa city centre, renewing their demands to apply a political transition of power.

 

The protestors lifted placards with slogans on them expressing their aspirations regarding reaching a political settlement ensuring the rights of all Syrians, amid calls for the continuity of the peaceful uprising.

 

Some of the slogans read “we started through peaceful uprising and we will comply with peaceful protests until victory,” “Resolution No. 2254 is a protection of the rights of all Syrians,” “death rather than humiliation,” “oh, freedom” and “Resolution No. 2254 is a political solution, but not a military or security one.”

 

The protestors also expressed their rejection of the current situation, stressing their rejection of humiliation and subservience and calling for equality and freedom.

 

Such protests proves the residents’ insistence to achieve a real politacl change in Syria, along with focusing on human rights and permanent political solutions instead of security and military solutions.

 

On September 15, SOHR sources reported that protests continued in Al-Suwaidaa as a part of the uprising which started last year, where protestors stress their legitimate demands.

 

In this context, tens of residents from Al-Suwaidaa city gathered in Al-Karamah square in the city centre, where they called for applying political change with the aim of reaching democracy and enjoying decentralization in a homeland containing all segments of the Syrian society.

 

The demonstrators lifted placards with slogans written on them, some of which read “we do not want a homeland where we are imprisoned for saying words of truth,” “our ancestors rejected the sectarian state 100 years ago,” “only Syrian people has the right to decide the future of Syria” and “there is no substitute for implementing the UN Resolution No. 2254.”
