Al-Jaafari : Some UNSC permanent members try to lie to create pretext for aggression against Syria

Al-Jaafari, during the UN Security Council session on the situation in Syria on Monday evening, condemned in the strongest terms the Israeli aggression on T-4 Airport in Homs province as a flagrant violation of the UN Security Council Resolution No. 350 of 1974 and relevant UN Security Council resolutions on combating terrorism.
” The repeated Israeli aggressions will not dissuade the Syrian Arab Army from continuing the decisive military achievements in combating terrorism,”
Al-Jaafari stressed that it has been proven that the campaigns launched by some states including member states at the Security Council on the deterioration of the humanitarian conditions in the Eastern Ghouta have been just lies.
The Permanent Representative said that the governments of some states are accustomed to lying, yet they fortunately lack the preciseness in making their lies, adding that the effects of lying policy adopted by some of the Security Council’s member states have become like mass destruction weapons.
He clarified that the evidence on their lies and allegations is that the locals of Douma exited safely and the terrorists chose to reach an agreement with the Syrian state.
…
He reiterated that Syria has warned many times of the fact that the terrorist groups are preparing for using chemical weapons against the innocent Syrians and that they work through their media tools to fabricate evidence on such attacks.

“We note in every chapter of the scenario of the alleged use of chemical materials that these materials do not target militants at all but only target children and women,” al-Jaafari said.

He confirmed that Syria is ready to facilitate the entry of a fact-finding mission of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) to Douma as soon as possible to verify the allegations of the attack as it supports the Russian demand on holding a session for listening to a briefing on the visit by assessment mission to Raqqa.

Today we directly accuse Washington, Paris, London, Riyadh, Doha and Ankara on supplying Daesh (ISIS), Jabhat al-Nusra, Jaish al-Islam and Faylaq al-Rahman and scores of other terrorist groups affiliated to them with poisonous chemical substances to use them against the Syrian civilians, al-Jaafari said.

Russia UN Envoy: US Brings Chaos to World, Has No Real Friends

TEHRAN (FNA)- Russia warned the US and its allies against “fishing in murky waters” of the Middle East, causing further chaos there, while UN envoy Vassily Nebenzia said the US shouldn’t assume it has friends, only countries unable to disagree.
The US and its allies have failed to understand the warning of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s words at the 2015 UN General Assembly, Nebenzia told the Security Council on Monday, RT reported.

“Do you now understand what you have done?” Nebenzia repeated Putin’s question about the West’s reckless geopolitical games in the Middle East, saying “No, you do not.”

“Everywhere you go, everything you touch, you leave behind only chaos. You try to fish in those murky waters, but the only thing you catch is mutants,” Nebenzia went on to say.

After challenging the narrative of a chemical attack in the suburban Damascus city of Douma as “fake news” – as no evidence was found of the alleged attack or the victims, after Syrian and Russian troops inspected the area liberated from Army of Islam militants – Nebenzia turned to the remarks made earlier by his US counterpart, Nikki Haley, who said that US and Russia “will never be friends.”

“We’re not particularly keen to be friends with you,” the Russian envoy replied, adding that “We’re not begging you for friendship. We want normal, civilized relations – which you arrogantly refuse, disregarding basic courtesy.”

“You are misguided to think you have friends,” Nebenzia cautioned, stressing that “Your so-called friends are just those who can’t say no to you. This is your only criteria for friendship.”

The Russian envoy closed his address to the Security Council with a warning that an unauthorized military attack on Syria, where Russian troops are legally deployed, would have “grave consequences.”

“What [the] military misadventures of the West bring about is well known, as shown by the examples of Yugoslavia, Iraq and Libya. Nobody has vested you with the power to act like the world’s policeman, or to act like the prosecutor, judge, and executioner either,” he stated.

Jaish Al Islam lied to secure their evacuation from #Douma. Only two buses have exited with kidnap victims. It is reported that remaining 3-5000 were executed prior to JAI surrender, many years before. All hope destroyed for waiting families.

#BREAKING - #Russian Black Sea Fleet declares high level combat alert for all vessels as #US-led trans-national strike force with #UK and #France poised to strike #Syria over chemical weapons allegations. Attack is expected in the next 24 hours.

Bara utifrån bilder som cirkulerar på sociala medier kan varken journalister eller experter avgöra om attacken har ägt rum eller inte. Det ligger i Jaysh al-Islams intresse att lägga skulden på den syriska regimen. Regimen som använder alla möjliga vapen för att inta östra Ghouta behöver inte ta till kemvapen för att avgöra slaget.
