arms here for example that france is promising to consider selling arms supplies to syrian rebels if it's not going to breach the e.u. is our arms embargo or there are some that are saying perhaps the arms embargo should be reversed or perhaps mr armey we're all being naive and have been funneled into syria already for quite some time well clearly arms have been arriving in syria quite some time some of them are weapons coming from the gulf arab states who played a similar role in the libyan conflict so weapons are coming across the border from turkey what has been think is that the european union states if you provided what they call non-lethal aid this sounds all very well of terror and some of it is no doubt medicines and supplies of that sort but some of it is the kind of communications equipment that enables people to turn the local usually available explosives into roadside bombs and other kinds of weapons but you need more sophisticated communications equipment to detonate it to locate the enemy and to organize attacks so i think already in krakow it's your opinion in countries have been speaking with a fourt
