arrests. promised to explore the possible consequences of the conflict in syria as the country's deputy foreign minister talks to r.t. . we're joined today by three if the foreign minister thank you very much for joining us despite all the efforts safe to put an end to it the violence in syria is continuing to be increasing why is the syrian government been unable to put an end to this well actually it is the very strong desire and determination of the syrian government from the very beginning to put an end to violence but. the ball is not in the court of the syrian government or of the syrian people it is in the court of those who do not want to see these events stop it insecurity

in serbia but particularly those who are calling flaring every now and then for arming the armed even enough for all resources from the smuggling of arms and weapons into this area of the trade from neighboring countries and also financially. and forcefully which is very helpful is distorting the picture of the reality of what is really happening in syria and hence comes to the if we say which is now the talk of the moment about the plan and plan calls for ending of violence which is true and also for six a point but again at the same time it calls for commitments by the neighboring countries by those who are supporting that from the part of the syrian

government why are the violations of the peace plan still happening and there is actually what you have said is that this. supervision mission of the united nations especially the chairman of the president of the mission has clearly said that the syrian government and also it is have really cooperated with the mission. facilitated their entry and facilitated their movement as well. also it is. he said also that yes the government and or so it is have always drove the vehicles and heavy vehicles or from the centers of the towns which means that they serve in government did cooperate and this is a fact in your facts on the ground there i did not hear from the commission any

statements saying that the serbian government has violated on the contrary what i heard from them and i read and hopefully you have read the from that up till now thousand five hundred violations by the armed groups have been committed they are grateful and hit the level that could fit into them so just talk from the side of the government's. part in this peace process now that the un are trying to implement in syria i mean in some of the areas we visited like it lead both sides a very clearly breaching the cease fire that they're trying to put in place they're not really even be as drew your attention to. this statement by the commission and the by the mob himself that yes the government and there are separate is are

being provoked by the. armed groups and when big asset it is due any action it is only in self-defense. now also there have been some. state many some declarations by. the human rights council and the human rights commission. admitting themselves that they have been misled by the opposition to say what they said foreign interference can only go say far to explaining the instability what part do you think the syrian government the regime has to blame for what's happened what's happening now well i cannot say to blame the serbian government or not to blame the serbian government but our people

have decided that there is no way but. there is no way but a peaceful solution a peaceful dialogue. a peaceful solution and settlement to this crisis and no way but if you follow the huge well planned. sanctions against the people. which is affecting now its impact is on every family on every. one one can ask why these sanctions are you punishing and sanctioning the people themselves lebanon's being seen to be dragged into this area and unrest at the moment how hard is it for the government the syrian government with this crisis spreading over now and some of these neighboring countries well it is no secret now neither to the lebanese nor to

the syrians nor to the word. the nothern part of lebanon which is tripoli and the region have become or they have been trying to make it the center for insurgents to come in with a settlement or a tree to create chaos create provocative and it has become it which is against the interest of the lebanese people themselves. the vast that has been loaded with weapons. different types of weapons highly sophisticated weapons smuggled into lebanon on that have been arrested by the lebanese government and gives a clue of why and to whom it was sent from this is a big big danger i did time at

a time the european navy are patrolling. the eastern coast of the mediterranean. didn't they see it didn't they follow it didn't they know what is in it did they facilitate i want to talk to you about three fewer saying it's been so hard throughout the quite system really get a grasp with so many claims and counterclaims from both sides about what's really happening from the very beginning the syrian government said that this is terrorist groups and armed gangs operating in the country. before you went to the. people who oppose the regime fit into this the big protests that we've seen happening in aleppo university students small villages unarmed civilian people well

if you know. from the very beginning there were some general demonstrators who wanted some legitimate demands by the government yes yes these their demands are rightful legitimate under started to do something then they started saying that it is peaceful demonstrations but that as a matter of fact it was not. under the government under us and it is. starting to say these are not peaceful they are provoking they are killing the people they are kidnapping and nobody believed under when the government started. the truce or started to be revealed it's only recently they said yes there are armed groups.

now as they said and that only recently now they said there are terrorist groups they are two of us are groups where do you think the final responsibility for what is happening in syria right now life he should take responsibility the final responsibility not you. that's me but i would ask i will answer this in two where is there are two proverbs that say. if you will deceive me once shame on you but if you would deceive me twice shame on me now the deceit was there from the very beginning of what was called the.

arab spring but everybody saw and witnessed what has happened in libya egypt traumas etc. what is the present situation. now the other one there is a probably says when you accuse others and the point your fingers accusing others just remember. see fingers of accusations. directed against you. here the reindeer is everything for the herders. and when it suffers. people do their best to help go out.

the distances are. predictable. will be remedied be in time. my parents really truly honestly believe that what had happened was as

a result of my father's exposure to agent orange i was born with multiple problems . i was missing my leg. and my fingers and my big toe on my right foot i use my hands a lot in my artwork i find myself drawing my hands quite a bit to me for my hands you know just as if anyone. but they do tell a story they tell us story of. the oxen. if .
