a one victim thousands this is too much for the syrian people and for the syrian government there has been a huge exaggeration of the figures of the victims the government is not responsible for this trip because as you know there are. because you know an international elements should be taken into consideration of assisting and to be assessing what's going on in syria on the groups in syria maybe even to resist an army unless you have a credible for the reasons that the use against the government forces we have been saying for months we are dealing with groups and the beginning during the first eight months everybody was denying these facts. by saying that the syrian government is not telling the truth and that there are no armed groups on the ground and that everything the government syrian government is saying is about lies then out of

a sudden after the eight months and when the un office should start talking about the scores of victims they acknowledged that in syria the government is dealing with armed groups i'm not saying that all the opposition. in syria these are the opposition in syria is about wings we are dealing with peaceful demonstrators on one hand but we are leaning also with our new groups on the other otherwise how would you explain that so far that the syrian government has lost two thousand five hundred officers security officers army officers army soldiers and people who don't need stuff we don't need for the unfortunate of the lot these mentioned should be taken into consideration while. assessing what's going on in syria you've said that there are there is islam is some mercenaries that are part of the opposition. is

a possible that there is regular civilians that are fighting for the snippet of justice who are out on the streets fighting for justice those who fight for justice purity justice should engage in the government's court for national and inclusive diet or government is really serious and committed to making the inclusive syrian led political process a successful one why has the syrian government fell so far brain the opposition for parks because the opposition is not independent in its making decision the opposition i mean here i'm talking about the extent of the opposition the swing or the opposition as well as the article of the decision makers outside of syria and the fulfill instructions coming from from saudi arabia from tookie from france from the from washington you are talking here about a nickel work of armed groups. which which are not independent.

in policymaking they cannot the decision without getting the green light from washington or produce or the whole bottle or the saudi arabia or turkey here just named countries and cities why would those countries and cities be interested in creating chaos in syria some of them would like to settle accounts with us such as the americans for those of us the british in syria was against the invasion of iraq they didn't forget it and they would pursuit of their accounts with us. on iraq that might be a surprise for you but this is how it is washington total peace and long gone would like to create a deviation from the palestinian question we have the israelis our corner of right now as you know on the issue of for the by the seniors to get the full membership in the united nations you think that's why they were absolutely absolutely not only

syria yemen egypt tunisia. all that you don't think any of this was about that the citizens of those countries just wanting to create better lives for them southall i don't think that i said i'm not judging or assessing the domestic situation in these countries i'm saying they are there are in the good commit claims that should be listened to and taken into consideration even in syria the government should listen to the legitimate claims of the people otherwise there is no justification for any government just to be willing to use it works against the interests of its own people but the issue is that these capitals western capitals need to create a deviation they found what they were looking for in the collision of the situation in syria by by using this channel as a deviation. the they can serve the interests of peace that they can

serve the interests of those who are against giving the full membership to the palestinian state and the united nations i'm saying this because the israelis and the americans are coordinate with this in. the international community so called international community i don't believe for much of this war magic war but repeat what they say these international community has been supportive of the kind of senior request to give the full membership yes the majority of your states of the united nations and all of the the palestinians have got so far one hundred thirty five states supporting the request to get the full membership and there is no way they could progress one inch would decide to go up but lindy the other one hundred thirty seven votes against syria and the general assembly then there there should be a declaration of war against syria because syria is not fulfilling that was a vision of the us and it's about the hypocrisy it's about double standards they

are not serious about making any assistance to the syrian people they are harming the syrian national political aims by using these claims against the will of the syrian people how to syria expect russia and china to remain as adamant as it has been happening in preventing any kind of military intervention from becoming a solution in syria now that russia and china has vetoed two resolutions plus the security council but i was stunned come by the us we have many friends in the security council and the forefront of course russia and china they were the only two that cast north of the arm of the or the last presentation of that's what the guys that lead us because they are one of the our talk out of the p five let me rephrase that they were two out of the only two out of fifteen that would not support that resolution in the second then this all the second the most recent whether remembered in the first of. all for the steam. and for

a new week for i'm not talking about i don't want to divide goals but the most recent part russia and china the understand what's going on and the and the war they are equal wars and they know that. if they let go once again. on syria. the that would be the end of the international law and the end of the charter of the united nations there are rules to be observed seventy of member states this is not me i'm saying this is that the publishers of the top look you have to respect the sovereignty you have to respect the territorial integrity you don't have to interfere in the domestic affairs of member states you have to help yes you have to assist yes but don't take advantage of the suffering of the peoples in order to interfere in the domestic affairs for your own purposes usa and britain have never been keen interest in serving the interests of neither the

syrian people nor the russian people nor the chinese people these powers insisted for six decades on ignoring the sea of that israeli occupation of the land if they were really serious about helping the syrian people they would have exerted pressure on these islands to withdraw from the syrian border to withdraw from the remaining people in in south lebanon occupied by using it to to give to the palestinians their. right of self-determination and having that one state in their own country so these any minutes are. and should be understood. when i ask you about the more than eight thousand people that were killed in syria you said that it's not the fault of the syrian government russia has said that the responsibility falls on both sides both sides are responsible for the violence and bloodshed that the government in syria and the opposition group but at this point it's not about point blaming one side or the other it's about you

know getting humanitarian assistance and there creating some kind of dialogue having said that why do you believe the world should trust that the syrian army is using force adequately i didn't say that the government is not responsible for i said the government as you were the responsibility of all these killings in syria because of course in any military confrontation with the army is is that is the governments are so in any military fighting there is on the one hand the government army and on the other. these two sides are killing each other in a traditional war. in an i'm some swore because what the government is saying is that. he's addressing the opposition by saying you have claims let us discuss these planes at the table not by using weapons and by just the demolishing and

destructing and attacking the oil refinery biplanes gas lines not by killing a live in military pilots and not by assassinating governments officers doctors academics etc i said this is what the government says the government has not been knowing the need for reform of the country on the quantity we are totally open minded towards the forming of a country radically speaking and this is what happened in the with the adoption of the new constitution for the president from now on will have only two terms that will be cut if it went on to elect the president from among the many candidates not only world a couple of politicized i mean not one candidate many candidates for but in presidential years this is what the opposition was calling for and this is what happened now it is there and we have it why continue with this blood ship why

listening to instructions coming from doha from saudi arabia for turkey from france from the bottom lip to sit together a serious mature syrians and discuss our own future by our old selves and the answer thank you very much for your time thank you.
