Al-Moallem: Pompeo’s accusations against Syria about the use of chemical weapons are a big lie

New York, SANA – Deputy Prime Minister, Foreign and Expatriates Minister Walid al-Moallem refuted the allegations made by US State Secretary Mike Pompeo about carrying out a chemical attack in Lattakia province in May.

Talking to Sputnik on Friday, al-Moallem described Pompeo’s statements, in which he accused the Syrian Arab Army of carrying out a chemical attack, as a “big lie.”

On May 25th, an official source at the Foreign and Expatriates Ministry said the fabricated and baseless news about the Syrian Arab Army using chemical weapons in the town of Kabani in Lattakia countryside are merely the prelude for Western lies and hypocrisy that preempts leveling threats against the Syrian state.
