areas are other countries this issue is no longer syrian in syria the issue is also an end. a national one and it now needs an international trial and an international court in order to hold accountable those who have committed violations in syria from all sides as everybody knows this the regime has used chemical weapons in syria on the fourth of april twenty seventh seen. as that is according to the report that was produced by the joint investigation committee wherein constituted by the decision of the security council that stated in its report dated on the twenty eighth of october twenty seventh seen that the syrian regime has used sarin gas in a home and resulted in ninety one dead and five hundred thirty nine wounded because of this we are in need of an international trial for the judgment of those who have committed violations in syria in order to reach peace and stability in syria yes the o.p.c. w. hasn't said whether it was the way of elmers the syrian government the russians the british who used the chemical weapons and i didn't say that the o.p.c. w is the one that

from the russian and syrian army and that will create huge immature and process let's also not forget that in this year in two thousand and eighteen we had more than one million syrian displaced people inside syria and the reason that they are displaced inside syria because all countries around syria have blocked all of their borders i met with some syrian refugees in lebanon and in jordan and i ask them what does it take for you to go back home and they told me that we need first of all to change the circumstances that we fled syria from will have a very brutal regime that is torturing people to death you know just last week the syrian regime has confirmed that it killed or. killed so that more than a thousand people died in the prison because of and they gave names actually of these people who died from homes from the area from wild army or from there are from aleppo so how can you expect refugees to return to syria with the threat of torture the tension and so for sure saddle them in just bringing the lead here because i'm interested to hear how things have changed in the last thre

people and to save them from under the rubble after the aerial shelling done by the syrian regime. in russia we have not seen any case of infiltration having said that there has been on some occasions certain areas that we have had to evacuate in a sudden and quick manner and therefore we left behind some clothing or equipment have been used by some groups to distort the reputation of the civil defense the photographs and fabrications that have come out as a result are not necessary truthful or generated by the syrian civil defense the white elements in fact in regards to all the issues that have surfaced if they were ever related to that organization we produce an official statement and we announce our stand regarding the mistakes that's might take place so are other organizations responsible for the alleged fake videos and photos a large. i believe that the main motive for the forgery and misuse of the photographs comes from groups that are active in social media and that are affiliated to russia and the syrian regime they are constantly working on ruining our reputation in order

tensions martin needly the russian center for syrian reconciliation says it's received intelligence on the delivery of toxic substances to the province with the help of the white helmets to later be used in staging a false flag attack russia has previously warned that militants are preparing to stage a chemical attack the issue has been the subject of heated debate at the u.n. security council syrian armed forces have no chemical weapons and no plans to use them and when you go there is no military necessity for and you've said this many times before to snuff and so the russians to assert that the syrians have no chemical weapons there are very many inaccuracies in inconsistences sensible people will not use militarily useless means to draw the fire of three powerful countries upon themselves we have no information about being delivered and therefore if the russian ministry does have that the most probable explanation is that it's a preemptive attempt to set the agenda and the narrative for an appalling tact to be considered as an addition to the three bill groups to stage another chem

if the syrian authorities were not forcing him to again a very interesting sparingly but unfortunately full of holes when i went to the area and i met by from ron and his family it was in the attack was in the hell category area so i went and met other families from that area and what they told me was that it was not a syrian government asteroid or a russian air strike it was shelling from the terrorist factions because that area was ninety inhabited by those who were loyal to the syrian regime and in fact throughout syria the syrian government and in fact throughout the occupation of the celebrity that area had been targeted various houses had been detonated destroyed and members of families had been kidnapped and tortured and then executed purely because they were considered to be loyal to the syrian government so the entire but granted the amount story that of course has been revealed after the liberation of eastern approach from the terrorist groups and the white house that reveals the fact that actually rides dollar is not very clear on his facts and. both of those interviews will

against how and it led by the syrian regime by the father then. and it was marginalized throughout the eighty's in the ninety's and the last decade and since that evolution started of course we witnessed massacres within the province against them for the regime and clearly the division within the oppositions there and it also made things even worse for the population and now after all of that. that's going to witness probably one of the worst onslaughts of this war with three million people within the province certainly many of them are hostage and potential casualties in this in this in this war. i think there is any way at all to stop it is there they should always be room for diplomacy is there any room left for diplomacy here look absolutely i mean you know if you know if the you know cool headed minds. you know when the day of course they will be and there's no need to do that in syria today you can reach some sort of deals but if we learned anything come about this war since the russians intervened in september two thousand and fifteen is th
