（1つ目）レバノンのバアス党議員のインタビュー。
シリアは今、米国のライス前国務長官が企画した新サイクス・ピコ協定に直面している。レバノンのMarch 14に属する少なくとも1人の議員が関与している。レバノン人の謀略者は罰せられなければならない。
トルコも謀略者の立場に分類される。反政府デモ・暴動は、あと10日から15日で収束する。
シリアに政治改革をやたらと急がせるトルコのアドバイスは不自然であり、シリアを不安定化させるためではないかと、私も毎日記事を読みながら感じ、そのような感想を書いた記憶がある。
実は、昨日付けのシリア政府系新聞にトルコを批判する記事が発表されていて、Radio Monte Carloでも時間を割いて話題にしていた。一つの国が、一方で
シリア政府の中枢にアドバイス（

Syria and Turkey and "Turkish model"
http://www.alwatan.sy/dindex.php?idn=101160
2011.05.12シリア側の分析はこれでいいとして、今後のトルコ・シリア関係はどうするつもりだろうか。アゼルバイジャンの天然ガスをトルコ経由でシリアが輸入することから始まり、ビザ相互免除、貿易投資関係、分野ごとに沢山結んだ高等戦略協定がいろいろあって、シリアの立場で大幅な関係見直しすることは、なかなか難しい。
（2つ目）アルメニア新聞から。トルコ・シリアの軍事的関係は損なわないが、政治的対立は明白になった。
MP of the Arab Baath Party
Assem Kanso: Were facing a new Sykes-Picot project
http://www.mmorning.com/ArticleC.asp?Article=9159&CategoryID=32011.05.11
I am sure that the crisis will pass and needs only a few days, although the dimension of the plot is not simple, according to Assem Kanso, MP for Baalbek-Hermel and affiliated with the Arab Baath Party. We are facing a new Sykes-Picot project, a project spawned by Condoleezza Rice and a new project for the Middle East. According to my knowledge, more than one MP of March 14 participated in the Syria project and paid money. Our destiny is severely tested and
the plotters on the Lebanese scene should be punished. As for the Turkish position towards Syria, it is a position of plotters.
How do you interpret what is happening in Damascus?
"It is not the first experience to know the possibilities of this young leader Bashar Assad. His father before him had many experiences, by which he learned many lesions and acquired a strong immunity, something which allowed him to overcome the stage of a multi-facetted plot by which the Zionists the Americans and other Western countries were planning to weaken Syria so that Israel could live in peace in our region. We all know that hands infiltrated into Syrian territory and we were informed about the dispatch of arms from several states to proceed with a change of regime in Syria. If everything evolves according to the enemy's plans, this will mean that the region will be destabilized and it will then be easy for the Jews to attack the Palestinians everywhere, as well as the Resistance and Hezballah. This will subject Lebanon to permanent danger.
Will Syria be able to overcome the plot quickly?
I am sure that the plot will not take more than a few days, despite its dimension. We are faced with a new Sykes-Picot project, of which Condoleezza Rice – the "chaos-creator ― is the author. It's a new "Greater Middle East" project which is striking Yemen, Libya and other countries.
For them, Syria is a solid citadel which will not bend. The West does not know the nationalism of the Syrian people, their faith, their Arabness, their culture, and no wager against the Syrian people will succeed.
The Syrian opposition had some requests of which some were met and the rest are being achieved. Here, we should pay tribute to the promptness with which
President Bashar Assad answered the protesters, but
his action did not satisfy hate-filled elements like Abdelhalim Khaddam, Rifaat Assad, the salafists, the Muslim Brothers and the Hezb ut-Tahrir party which is in our country.
We know how the plot started, despite the rapid reforms carried out by the Syrian president, and
how weapons infiltrated into the neighboring country with a view to destroying the Syrian Republic.
Other parties deny the idea of a plot…
There is no smoke without fire. And as a member of the Baath Party, I can affirm that more than one MP of the March 14 camp who has taken part in
the Syrian dossier. All will be resolved very soon settled very soon and we will not let the plotters escape from the penalty they deserve. Is it reasonable to let pass
the scandal of the cheques which has been unveiled recently?
The accusations of Bahrain
Accusations were launched against a Lebanese party which it denied and accused your ally Hezballah of having interfered in the affairs of Bahrain. Why do you reject these accusation and admit those which concern the Lebanese?
We cannot talk of double standards nor establish a comparison between the two issues. In Syria, it is about a plot and elements which have been involved in arms smuggling and the sending of money. It is therefore a real conspiracy.
When Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah talked about Bahrain, he evoked what is happening in Yemen and in Libya. They evoked the case of Bahrain simply because there is a Shiite majority which took part in action.
Some have spoken of training given by Hezballah of certain elements?
Let them present to us at least one person who has been trained by Hezballah.
The attitude of Ali Shami
What about the attitude of Foreign Minister Ali Shami at the UN Security Council, who was blamed for having gone beyond the authority of the president of the Republic and the parliamentary speaker?
Do they want Ali Shami to renounce his national convictions? Should he join the plotters and agree to what is being carried out against Syria, placing himself in the ranks of the Americans and the Zionists?
Ali Shami has convictions on the basis of which he acts. I don't think that the president of the Republic and the prime minister are denouncing what Ali Shami accomplished. Can we imagine that the Foreign minister would support an anti-Syrian resolution? Don't we speak of privileged relations with Syria?
The plot by the Future Movement has become clear and does not need to be proved.
Can we say that the doors of Damascus have been closed in the face of the Future Movement?
If Syria considers that it is in its interest to reestablish contact with a party or persons who acted against it, I will be against this decision.
Some blame the Syrian ambassador in Beirut for having violated the diplomatic rules by evoking what happened here.
The ambassador did nothing other than defending his country, and he submitted the information to the judicial authorities.
How do you interpret the American position?
I was not surprised by this position and I wonder if it was not submitted under the pressure of NATO. If the Security Council had been able to adopt a resolution against Syria, we would have seen NATO planes flying over Syrian territory after flying over Turkish air space.
Erdogan, the Turkish prime minister, is in the same mindset as the salafists and other similar religious current which could have bases in the Arab world.
The Turkish position towards Syria categorized as a plot. Turkey has minimized Syria's power and its nationalism, and it has failed to understand the personality and the thought of President Bashar Assad.
Have you visited Syria recently?
Certainly, whenever we hold meetings. I am a member of the national leadership of the Baath Party.
How do you see the climate prevailing in the region, regardless of what the media say?
I can assure you that the media do not express
the situation under its real aspect and it
will calm down after ten or fifteen day. Such is my personal opinion.
Shahan Kandaharian: Syria won't allow Turkey's interference
http://www.panarmenian.net/eng/world/news/69827/Shahan_Kandaharian_Syria_wont_allow_Turkeys_interferenceMay 13, 2011 - 14:11 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Recently, Syria-Turkey relations have cooled over the official Ankara's position on riots in Syria, according to the editor-in-chief of Beirut-based Aztag daily newspaper.
As Shahan Kandaharian stated in a conversation with a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, Turkey is attempting to interfere with Syria's internal affairs, supporting the West's accusations of Bashar Al-Assad.
"
The situation does not harm military cooperation between the countries. Political confrontation, however, is becoming more obvious, with critical reports appearing on both sides," he said. The recent events prove the role of Turkey in Syria will change, with Ankara to be subjected to more criticism by Damascus."
