ten thirty am in moscow these here are the headline syrian authorities in the opposition are trading accusations over who is behind a series of deadly suicide attacks in regime strongholds that killed thirty people the government also blames qatar and saudi arabia for a call for. egypt's new constitution not yet written but already in the middle of a scandal with calls to dissolve the panel that sets and brought up this exactly a year after people voted for change in a store or. washington lawmakers were legal lines when it comes to the u.s.

freedom of assembly making it easier to put demonstrators behind bars protesting in areas where the president or anyone protected by secret service could be visiting you considered a felony. russia and china stood side by side their stance on the syrian crisis saying conflict should only be resolved through diplomacy nexstar he speaks with professor he wing pang from the chinese academy of social sciences to find out more about what's bringing the two countries together the interview up next. professor hare senior research fellow in studio west asian african studies and chinese academy of social sciences it's great to have you with us here in moscow my pleasure so skeptics say that russia and china unanimously resist nuclear solution to the syria conflict because they have significant economic interest how true what

do you say to that that about money you are well i don't think it's just the money actually company or is there russia's economic interests in syria china's economic interests in syria it's not too much it's not about their money sure actually is that you sure about principle. and especially the international relations principle because i always try and as a policy it will matter parties that i think about the same as the russians falling as we are. we should fully respect the sovereignty of all of our country and also we fully against the use of force trying to do any rejean change thought towards another country so any regime change or there are you know a change of administration should be undertaken by people in that country by people themself i think that's the principles that are now the funding that's a great principle and that has to be defended but for russia other than principle

and maybe anomic interests it's also an issue of geopolitics what about china other than the principle is or anything else why you are against a military solution before you talk about the geopolitical. importance are not only syria. ya'll even talk that you are wrong the whole middle east as well because in terms of the oil resources. i think everybody knows that china has really depend on the oil imports from the whole of the middle east and also of course being our western region for example of as we go autonomous region we're also facing like oh we call those three exuma forces they're like are separate separatists also extremists so those forces they are also constitute quiet sarratt to their beauty in china as a whole so we don't want to see. other forces maybe big they would like to

penetrated to our western area that's something we don't want to see more of those . extremist forces spreading or work towards our brother as you mentioned al qaeda i know that it calls on muslims to support the rebellion against syrian president assad how do you think why has the initial fight for democracy turned into a terrorist colling i think the factors behind this issue are quite complicated i don't think this is army but the message actually that even the sectors are milder muscling actually eventually because outside forces has been as the in penetrated nowadays the so-called the the freedom army of the syria now is not longer the pure syrian people resume these freedom army turkey. is the other have called they're

basically in turkey and i think are you for even some of our forces also involved in the rebuilding army so this information actually has been released by the cia from the united states and then later on has been confirmed by some other resources so now all those fighting groups i think the background must be coming complicating it much much more complicated than before. no you just touched upon the two segments of the syrian opposition to free syrian army and the turkey based national council also there are people there in the streets are fighting for the better life this three pieces of the syrian opposition how cohesive are they right or how they are not so coherent because we all know the sunni a freedom army that based in turkey there outside of syria and then reason to syria there is another one called the cold war the nation group and then there is another called the national council so there are basically that us three major opposition

groups of both sort of the they are not united together so that these organizations and also those in fighting other two major features those. groups are also up people inside syria how willing are the opposition outside syria to the external i think they don't always into those orders or syrians at all. corps like this so called the syria friends that conference friends of syria coordination. group based thing syria in the country then they refused to join the friends of syria conference so we are quite clear that means. groups at home they don't want to listen to listen to any orders coming from like for freedom on me of syria is the in turkey or any others so they are fighting for their rights but separately independently what about the free syrian army firing incite syria are they and the

people who came out in the streets who are asking for a better life fighting for the same thing on the surface they're fighting for the same same rights not as same goal that is the same for them that is to a top down the sort of game that's the share the common goal for all of those the for the opposition grows out of it don't know other detail for example the national council of the syria. they haven't put forward any charters for the other people particularly roadmap whatever national council i mean based in turkey raised in turkey same thing also for that they're coordinating pounds obeys the in syria so i think neither being put forward what kind of syria they are going to be with in the future what about turkey is it playing a constructive role in your opinion hosting forces that are eager to topple assad well turkey soon a role i think also is quite comfy kavi that first of all they hosed this repost

searching group freedom army of syria so they serve that as they have color fought for them and they're going to hold for the second the friends of syria meeting very soon probably early of a poll and also i think that turkey also has the country now leading the way you from called for like some military support for those of us in party of course that also impose the sanction for the fresh air government so all of that that just to add those support for the wrong partner in the between the less the five thing so obviously it's not so constructive for reaching a dialogue between those two fighting parties of the west it is pushing for a humanitarian intervention in syria and of course one wonders really a pressing need for that or could that be a cover up for in military intervention like in libya i think to

a great extent all of those measures so far has been taken by western conferees. needs to a kind of like you mentioned a cover for the future military intervention even though armed services now we haven't heard quite a lot to say even from the white house from the on how this thing is or from a european country. they're saying now that we need to hurry into a regime is not a option yeah i believe when president obama says there will be no milter our action against us all it's hard to believe that because the only respect to levy a war at the very beginning we heard the same in the seeing coming from white house and coming from the nato they're seeing military intervention is not the of and the later we have are seeing a very clearly eventually the military into vision. or a tentative left victims in syria are reported to be around seven thousand five

hundred people from both sides deposition and the current claim each other for tweaking the numbers who are you more inclined to believe the new number coming out is aids are sent so that number rising very rapidly so it makes. cannot be just that believe brander we know that number now has been given by the un but what can the resources the yuan can get slumbers and then which we see the back to two of the number there's the number you paid based. a group called to summarize observation group for the syria so the bible of collapsing those numbers and then this group the longer this group is coming from those rebel forces so they send those numbers to visit your pay based humorous observation group and then these groups and the lumber for the un visit

a fair number yeah i saw it real true spackle holders the resources change so i think this is just the one way of seeing and furthermore syrian government also gave the ambers they are saying even though you feel poor it is a seven thousand casualties but they are seeing at the least the one server being. those security forces they had being killed as well by those. the groups so now i think the real picture is still clear amidst despite a new syrian constitution was supported by ninety percent of the population and this new constitution aiming to smooth things out can these results really be trusted ninety percent of the population supporting the new constitution well other western media. highly about. these high supporting rate even when there are some where one has the high support here is there always. an

election here in russia so i think no matter it's true or not but at least the fact that he is a majority of the people they have custody of the beret i think a should be should be there at the fact and also from observation team from i think from at the for the civil society as they have also written is that all of those are voting process so i tend to believe even though those supporting read extremely high tensile believe that mr like a seventy present should be majority shia majority she'll be. better she will be the fact do you think our side will remain in power and if you does what will his regime evolve into i think so far the situation is tense to be favoring favorable for the assad regime so if it's a situation both like that the way there is no possibility for any like

a warranty or step down of this. ridge him but of course i also noticed like the u.s. press and alabama where he had to join the conference always the. british prime minister the come along and he used that these wars saying and now it's not a matter of beef by sheer. dumb it's not a matter. it's a question of if it's just a question of when so richard now united states is quite determined to get by sheer out of his office so the question is the situation on the ground i think that's the determinations factor for this region will be there isn't any outside forces can make final say thank you very much for this interview professor here my pleasure to be here.

loses the. wealthy british style sun it's time to rise.
