10:32 am
anti-government uprisings began in syria year ago my question for you how long can the violence and bloodshed continue whether it is one victim or it's thousands this is too much for the seat of people and for the syrian government there has been that he was an exaggeration of the figures of the victims the government is not responsible for this election because as you know there are a lot of it as you know an international element should be taken into consideration right assisting the assistant what's going on in syria how the groups in syria may be able to resist an army unless they have a credible force the reason that they use against the this is the government forces we have been saying for months we are dealing with groups and at the beginning during the first eight months everybody was denying these facts. by saying that the
10:33 am
syrian government is not telling the truth that there are no armed groups and underground 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 dealing also with our new groups on the other hand otherwise how would you explain that so far the syrian government has lost two thousand five hundred officers security officers army officers army soldiers and people who don't think i mean stuff we don't mean for the money for spirit of the law this they mention should be taken into consideration why.
10:34 am
assessing what's going on in syria you've said that there is as long as some mercenaries that are part of the opposition. it's a possible that there's a very few are civilians that are fighting for a percentage of justice or 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 and the government is really serious and committed to making the inclusive syrian led political process a successful one why has the syrian government felt so far bringing the opposition in for talks because the opposition is not independent and it's 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 armed groups of the decision makers outside of syria be fulfilled instructions coming from saudi arabia for turkey from france for you
10:35 am
from washington you are talking here about an ip war of the groups. which which are not independent. in policy making they cannot take decisions without getting the green light from washington or this or the whole or the saudi arabia or turkey you just named are 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 instance the british because syria was against the invasion of iraq they didn't forget it and they want to settle their accounts with us. new york that might be a surprise for you but this is how it is washington. and london would like to create a deviation from the palestinian question we have the israelis our corner of right
10:36 am
now as you know on the issue of. sin is to get the full membership of the united nations you think that's why they were absolutely absolutely not only syria yemen egypt tunisia algeria 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 saudis are doing things that i said i'm not judging or assessing the domestic situation in this country is i'm saying there are there are legitimate 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 kristie willing to use it what's 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 as escalation of the
10:37 am
situation in syria by by using this channel as a deviation. they 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. the international community so-called international community i don't believe for much of this war magic war but little sleep eat what they say these international community has been supportive of the kind of senior requests to go before the membership yes the majority of them are your states of the united nations and all of us thought that by the seniors are got so far one hundred thirty five states supporting their requests to get the full membership there is no way they could progress one inch with this illegal but lindy got one hundred thirty seven votes against syria in the general assembly then there
10:38 am
there should be a declaration of war against syria because syria is not fulfilling that is the mission 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 popular claims by using these claims against the will of the syrian people how to syria expect russia and china to remain as adamant as it as they have a main aim preventing any kind of military intervention from becoming a solution and syria you know that russia and china has veto two resolutions parts of the security council but i was stunned 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 not at the arm of the or the you know as far as the ocean or it's the guys that leaders because they are one or the other four out of the p five put me rephrase that they were two out of the only two out of fifteen that did not support
10:39 am
that resolution in the second then this is the second the most recent along with remember that in the first of the authorization also for abstained and for if you wait for i'm not talking about i don't want to disarm the holders but for the most recent months russia and china the understand what's going on and the war they are and they nor there. if they let go once a game. 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 the problems of the top and you have to respect the sovereignty you have to respect that employee and think that 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 people most in order to interfere in the domestic affairs for your own purposes
10:40 am
usa france 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 it is an ideal completion of the world if they were really serious about helping the syrian people they would have exerted pressure on these ideas to withdraw from the syrian border to withdraw from the remaining people in south lebanon occupied by using it to to give to the palestinians their. right of self-determination and having that own state in their own country. so all these elements are. part of global emissions and should be understood as is 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
10:41 am
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 in 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 that the government cannot assume the responsibility of all these killings in syria because of course in any military confrontation the army is is that the governments are so in any military fighting there is on the one hand the government and on the other the armed groups of these two sides are killing each other in a traditional war i could play a quick order in and some swore because what the government is saying is that. he's
10:42 am
addressing the opposition by saying you have claims little us discuss these claims at the table not by using weapons and by just the demolishing and distracting and attacking the finery pipelines gas lines not by killing eleven military pilots not by assassinating governments often sherm's doctors academics etc i said this is what the government says the government has not been knowing the need for reform of the country and the quantity we are totally open minded towards khalif forming the country but i think only speaking and this is what happened in the with the adoption of the new constitution the president from now on will have only two terms that will be different on to elect the president from among the many candidates
10:43 am
not anymore a popular politicized i mean not one candidate many candidates for the put in presidential this is what the opposition was calling for and this is what happened now it is there we have it. why continue with this bloodshed and why are you listening to instructions coming from from saudi arabia for cooking full price for the last little sip to give the syrians mature syrians and discuss our own future my own horse and i thank you very much for your time thank you. please. please.
