Archbishop of the Sebastian Roman Orthodox Church, Attallah Hanna, affirmed that the US-Zionist scheme targeting Syria, aided by some regional parties, is a new Sykes-Picot project aiming at dividing the Arab nation and liquidating the Palestinian cause.

In an interview with the Syrian TVon Saturday, Archbishop Hanna expressed the Palestinian people's solidarity with the Syrian people in the face of the heinous conspiracy targeting its national and pan-Arab stances, asserting that Syrian is the only resistant country in the region which stands by the Palestinian cause.

He expressed hope to see "the renewable Syria", which President al-Assad talked about.. Syria, strong, stable, civilized, democratic and civil country."
