HMEIMIM, March 21. /TASS/. European countries should take part in efforts to establish peace in Syria and lift sanctions against it, parliamentarians from the Council of Europe said as they visited Russia’s Hmeimim air base with a delegation of Russian lawmakers on Tuesday.
"I saw it for myself that Russia accomplishes here an important and huge humanitarian function to bring peace to Syria. I want to express admiration for Russia, the people who are doing so much to see peace established here," Italian Senator Antonio Razzi told reporters.
"I hope that Europe and all people of good will take part in this peace process that will be to the benefit of the whole humankind," he went on.
Czech deputy of the European Parliament Jaromir Kohlicek, for his part, said that sanctions against Syria must be lifted. "My position in the European Parliament is clear - I am firmly against the sanctions imposed by the European Parliament. This position has strengthened during this trip," the Czech parliamentarian noted.
Parliamentarians visited on Tuesday the Russian airbase, where they met with the command of the Russian group in Syria and familiarized themselves with the activity of the Russian center for reconciliation of warring parties, which renders humanitarian aid to the country’s population.
