A/HRC/18/53 • Concerning refugees, they will face no obstacle at their return, we will facilitate their homecoming, and we also allow members of the press to cover events in turbulent areas. • Permission to enter the country and proceed with its investigations of human rights will be granted to human rights organizations by the Syrian state in accordance with considerations related to national sovereignty, in a time the state determines as suitable. • In terms of procedures, we find the High Commission’s report deviating from the usual legal framework set up by the resolution S-16/1 in many aspects, including: 1- Changing the “Mission” name into “Fact Finding Mission” in the report title, as well as the first paragraph. 2- Non-compliance with the logic of resolution S-16/1 requiring the Commission to investigate and present an impartial, reliable report. 3- In paragraph 15 and 17 of the report, some of the violations were described as potential crimes against humanity, this description does not fall under the High Commission’s jurisdiction, and has no place to appear in this report. The High Commission’s mission stops at collecting information and does not extend to attributing legal designations to the mentioned violations. 4- The High Commission has presented its recommendations to UN Security Council, while, in fact, its relation is limited to the Human Rights Council. 5- The High Commission has presented its recommendations to the Arab League, is acting as if the Arab League is under authority of the Human Rights Council. • With the high estimation Syria has with regards to the Human Rights Council, and its missions, Syria expects the Council to keep its impartial position, and to take into account the different existing view points, to objectively analyze it away from prejudice, especially with respect to humanitarian aspects. We implore the High Commission to remain independent, and not allow pre determined perceptions and lack of scrutiny to take over its judgment. The Syrian government is extending a helping hand to the High Commission in proposing a fruitful cooperation aiming to set matters in their right places. Syria is in the process of preparing comprehensive judicial documents, which will be presented to the High Commission and other competent international bodies, clearly showing the involvement of individuals, groups and states in fueling internal unrest and sectarian friction, while supporting armed terrorist groups’ work in destroying stability and the national unity of Syria. In addition to interfering with internal affairs of Syria, and offering financial and moral support to criminal gangs ravaging the country and murdering both civilians and armed forces personnel and bringing about chaos, confusion and organized violence.
