Syria has strongly denied press reports on secret contacts between Syria and Israel. "Syria has nothing to conceal and it rejects all kinds of secret contacts,” official sources told SANA, adding: “ Syria has always been working openly and under the lights.”
“Such Israeli statements are repeated from time to time to attain media goals, mislead the world public opinion and make it believe that Syria has become weak due to the big pressures it is exposed to,” the source noted.
