  1. “The Syrian people will not forgive the hypocrites who contributed to their suffering - those who shed crocodile tears for Syrian children while giving the green light to those who kill children in Syria. As for the representative of Turkey, we are puzzled by her feigned surprise with regard to the fate of children in our country. But perhaps Turkey believes that the constant attacks against Syrian civilians by terrorist groups supported by Turkey and the facilitation of access to Syria across Turkish borders for thousands of terrorists is the best way to protect Syrian children.”

  2. “Its role has been described as that of a key ally of the United States in financing Wahabist terrorist groups, including groups linked to Al-Qaida, such as the Nusra Front and the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant. Other reports refer to the involvement of the Qatari regime and the connection of some of its sheikhs to Al-Qaida. The children that the representative of Qatar referred to died because of Qatar's support for terrorist groups. That clearly reflects the hypocrisy of Qatar's approach with regard to the fate of children in Syria. The Syrian people will never forget the crimes committed by the sheikhs, supported by their petrodollars in Qatar. Those responsible for those crimes should be brought to justice.”

  3. “Ms. Alsaleh (Syrian Arab Republic) (spoke in Arabic): We are forced to take the floor again to respond to the allegations in the statements made by the representatives of Qatar and Turkey. As usual, the representative of Qatar made allegations against my country's Government in order to cloak his country as the protector of freedoms. In referring to the state of Syrian children, he completely disregarded his country's role in the financing of terrorism and its support for terrorist groups operating in my country. The facts regarding the Qatari regime's involvement in providing support to jihadist extremist groups in Syria have been documented and verified in various international reports, including a report by CNN in June.”

  4. “We need no sermons from the representative of that discriminatory regime that violates the dozens of resolutions that have condemned it and its abhorrent practices against the Arab peoples, as well as aggression against its neighbours. I would advise her to cease shedding crocodile tears for the men and women of Syria. Syria needs no such poison. Rather, it awaits the liberation of the Syrian Golan from the Israeli occupation.”

  5. “Perhaps the representative of the occupation needs to be reminded that she represents an occupying Power - a raping Power - one that has occupied Arab territories for over 65 years and cannot be called humanitarian, human or even credible. She ought to be ashamed at the mere mention of one crime perpetrated by her regime against a particular Palestinian woman who was forced to give birth to her child at a checkpoint and died without being allowed access to any medical care. The occupying Power respects none of the human rights of the people under its occupation. Innocents are being killed, including women, children and the elderly. Homes are being demolished on the heads of the inhabitants, and acts of apartheid and ethnic cleansing are carried out. Let her keep her dispiriting thoughts to herself.”

  6. “Ms. Alsaleh (Syrian Arab Republic) (spoke in Arabic): I apologize for taking the floor for a second time during the meeting. However, I wish to respond to the statement made by the representative of the Israeli entity. It is indeed unacceptable for the representative of the Israeli occupation to speak of Israel's respect for human rights. She is proud that her country has signed the Declaration of Commitment to End Sexual Violence in Conflict. Accusations are meted out to Arab countries and the countries of North Africa concerning ways and means to eradicate sexual violence, at a time when Israel continues to practice all forms of violence against thousands of women and young girls - Arabs and particularly Palestinians under Israeli occupation - including acts of killing, rape, violence, arbitrary detention and sexual abuse in detention.”

  7. “In addition, we have seen the closing down of the mouthpiece of the Qatari regime, the Al-Jazeera channel, in a number of capitals around the world, following evidence about its involvement in stirring up public opinion and conveying a distorted picture about what is happening in the world. It is no secret that this channel has been covering, for several decades, the activities ofAl-Qaida and Taliban movements. We reserve the right to hold these people accountable for their crimes, which have been documented by the United Nations in the General Assembly and the Security Council. Finally, I should like to recall the well-known Arabic saying, which applies to the Qatari regime and its representatives: "If you have no shame, then do whatever you wish".”

  8. “Today, I do not want to remind the representative of Qatar of the remarks by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the independence of judges and lawyers, Gabriela Knaul, about the persistence of a judicial system that flouts the human rights of non-Qatari nationals in Qatar and which is not independent because of interference by the Qatari executive branch, in particular by major companies and the members of the ruling family. Today, everybody is aware of the role played by the Qatari regime, which sponsors international terrorism. Facts are unfolding about the involvement of the Qatari regime in bombings in Syria, Egypt, Libya, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.”

  9. “I believe that the decision by Qatar's neighbouring States to withdraw their Ambassadors in protest of Qatar's narrative is the strongest proof of the ignominous and brutal methodology adopted by the Qatari sheikhdom in altering facts, inciting sectarian conflict and instigating the murder of Syrian children from a distance. Those who claim that they are concerned for human rights in States worldwide should set an example in this area.”

  10. “Ms. Alsaleh (Syrian Arab Republic) (spoke in Arabic): We very much appreciate your giving us the floor for the second time at this meeting, Madam President. We are taking the floor to respond to the allegations in the statement by the representative of the Qatari regime, which has now become isolated and ostracized even by its closest allies in the Arab Gulf. If the representative of Qatar were truly concerned for the children of Syria and their lives, she would have asked her ruling family to stop the sectarian narrative of instigation launched from their territory through their local and and satellite television channels. Such a narrative - for her information, of course - is what sends jihadists from the world over to Syria to perpetrate the most abhorrent forms of killing, slaughter and rape against Syrian children.”

  11. “In conclusion, we would like to reaffirm that the ambiguous role played by the sheikhs of Qatar will not go unnoticed by the Syrian people. The Syrian people will in the future prosecute all those who have committed crimes against them. We have specialized national committees tasked with investigating all those crimes, which will be pursued in due course.”

  12. “We would like to reaffirm that the negative roles that Qatar and Turkey have played, which are no secret to anyone in this international Organization, have contributed to aggravating the situation in Syria, rather than to finding a settlement thereto. Some sheikhs in Qatar provide all kinds of support to terrorists, in particular those affiliated with Al-Qaida, by providing money, weapons and media support. I must not neglect to mention the actions by the Turkish authorities in smuggling mercenaries and weapons through our common borders and the rape by soldiers of Syrian refugee women in camps established on Turkish territory. I would like to recall that, on more than one occasion, many officials, including officials from the Turkish Parliament, were prevented from visiting certain camps on Turkish territory.”

  13. “Ms. Alsaleh (Syrian Arab Republic) (spoke in Arabic): I would like to respond to some claims just made by the representatives of Qatar and Turkey concerning my country. What we have heard today from some delegations - and this is extremely important, as we have already said - is that the ending sexual violence, combating it in conflict situations and eliminating the consequences of armed conflict can be achieved by removing the root causes of those scourges, stopping the financing for terrorism, ending interference in the internal affairs of States and combating policies that instigate sexual violence against women.”
