The conference is organized annually by the International Labour Organization (ILO) and this year will be held virtually in Geneva.

Delivering a speech, head of the Syrian delegation, Minister of Social Affairs and Labor, Dr. Salwa al-Abdullah affirmed the importance of taking clear and frank decisions by ILO in condemnation of Israeli occupation of occupied Syrian Golan, Palestine and other occupied Arab territories and flagrant violations committed by the occupation against civilians, employers and workers in Golan.

“We are looking forward to a strong stance supporting Syria in its war against terrorism,” Abdullah said.

She added that the global war which was waged against Syria is a crime that targeted all aspects of life and also the Syrian Human being in all livelihood, causing the loss of thousands of workers from their job opportunities and sources of livelihood.
