“It is not a secret that Turkey finances Daesh and facilitates the movement of its people into Syria,” Bashar al-Jaafari said.
He mentioned the direct link existing between Daesh, Wahhabism and Saudi Arabia, which “provides the foundation for this philosophy.”
“It is no longer a secret that Qatar and Saudi Arabia are funding the al-Nusra Front. They pay the bills for training and arming them. It is not just Syria that says it, the Security Council agrees,” the Syrian envoy emphasized.
Syria has been torn by a civil war since 2011, as government forces have been clashing with opposition factions and extremist groups operating in the country, above all Daesh and the al-Nusra Front.
More than 220,000 people have been killed and over a million have become refugees.
