its secret chemical weapons program this is something that is going in contrast with what the o.p.c. w. had said before because the o.p.c. w in twenty sixteen the found that the syrian government got rid of all of its toxic stockpiles that was something. that russia oversaw and the o.p.c. w. had full control of and so the russian foreign ministry has said that if france had this information since twenty thirteen as the claim then why bring it now why only bring it up now and stay silent for so many years it was done of thank you for those details. and do you stay tuned throughout the day with the international beeper can you with an emergency set session of the u.n. security council so stay with us in the meantime american british and french forces that pounded syria with missile and and strikes in the early hours of saturday morning that's not breaking news story today president trump announced the military action in a t.v. address as he spoke explosions rocks the capital damascus it comes in response to an alleged chemical attack in a syrian town of duma we could go more than reports. but

o.p.c. double had given syria a clean bill of health when it was in fact anything but clean and the o.p.c. w makes that point to this day they made it again last month they still haven't had satisfactory answers from syria on a number of outstanding questions. well do want me to respond to your question or do you want to somehow look into a broader picture which i'd love you to answer the question right so the answer is they declare its chemical arsenal was completely destroyed under stringent international control with very much aerial involvement of a number of countries russia included us included and so on so forth. subsequently in some time the op c.w. and the technical secretary of the organisation started to introduce additional questions and or points which syria was supposed to answer in terms of what they were doing in the research center in bars or how about a number of facilities which were empty bob by that time in terms of hungers and tunnels and so on so forth and what about the number of munitions that were unaccounted for the syrian side the syrian government. for provided p

insertion just as what happens with the russian federation called today's meeting despite the fact the o.p.c. w. had not concluded its technical assistance to the u.k. it also. its attempt to do so was not a cynical ploy it sought ultimately to show confusion and prostrate the process. a loss lee has more now from london on the investigation into last month's spy attack in souls who tried to kill this cripples weeks on from the incident there remains no determining piece of evidence that puts beyond doubt the question as to who was behind this. of course the samples taken from the scene that help british scientists determine what's the poison was but that isn't the same thing it was not a chalk they said but don't ask us which country it came from because it isn't our job. we are one hundred percent certain that this is from the nova chalk family of nerve agents a military create nerve agent who provided the information to the police and to the government and that's really been our rule in the us it's not for us to advice on who me who meet the near vision or weird indeed it came from. all of which

o.p.c. w. inspectors had investigated previous attacks and on four occasions decided that the regime was indeed responsible and on each occasion when we have seen every sign of chemical weapons being used any attempt to hold the perpetrators to account has been blocked by russia at the u.n. security council with six such vetoes since the start of two thousand and seventeen just this week the russians vetoed a draft resolution that would have established an independent investigation into this latest attack even making the grotesque and absurd claim that it was staged by britain so we have no choice but to conclude that diplomatic action on its own will not be any more effective in the future than it has been in the past over the last week the u.k. government has been working intensively with our international partners to build the evidence picture and to consider what action we need to take to prevent and deter future humanitarian catastrophes caused by chemical weapons attacks. when the cabinet met on thursday we considered the advice of the attorney general the national security adviser and th

question mark as to whether or not there were aspects of the syria program that had not been declared completely o.p.c. w wording in all of its statement is often very careful and had for good reason i suppose was the o.p.c. w. satisfied about dealing with chemical weapons in syria that. well there was a degree of sort of. satisfaction obviously in the context of removing the declared chemical weapons from syria and also dismantling the declared chemical weapons production could be a capability but as i said that's not just addressed to the syrian government but to the context as a whole they were both the issues of a continued use of chemical weapons improvised chemical weapons cloran mustard agent and sarin gas which was investigated by the fact finding mission and then there was the question of making sure that the declaration of the syrian government was in fact a complete declaration so that they were all the efforts to try and move forward towards a more comprehensive complains situation or the convention. bringing us up to date then no sooner this current team from the o.p.c. w. touched down than

o.p.c. a-w. so they could collect and package samples taken from places that had to be inspected. all of team from the o.p.c. w. is currently in syria to investigate the alleged chemical attack but even before any conclusions have been drawn the u.s. envoy to the u.n. says russia might have tampered with the attack site that's according to a statement obtained by the reuters news agency russia's foreign minister denies the allegations more on that now from correspondent jacqueline booga. well he flat out denied those accusations coming from the u.s. envoy saying that he guarantees that russia did not in any way tamper or manipulate the site of the alleged attack the u.s. envoy is referring to the fact that just a few days after this alleged attack took place russian military did send specialists to the site and searched the area and they said that they could find no traces of chemical weapons there and since then of course russia has been calling for an international independent investigation to take place on the ground especially given that the initial reports of this alleged atta

o.p.c. w shows that this was and i quote sloppily staged we also heard from the syrian representative to the the o.p.c. w. he said that syria had destroyed all of their chemical weapons back in twenty thirteen you also refuted these claims that there was any type of chemical attack that took place and then we heard from the russian military representative who spoke dead equal could a lot of he said that if you look at the video if you look at the actual canister that in the video that supposed to show the delivery mechanism of this attack that logistically it would be impossible to deliver a chemical weapon in such a way we have to remember that we are led to believe that on the seventh of april to as many as seventy people were killed after a chlorine and sarin mix we used in a chemical attack on this town but then what we did hear from we heard from some of those people that were in those videos that have been circulated widely we heard from her son who's an eleven year old boy who's filmed in those videos been doused with water afterwards he said that we had we were told that we should go to hospital and we went through the

the constitutional matters here in britain what did you think of the timing of the strike i had of the o.p.c. w. inspectors going to do much to prove that what mainstream media certainly has assessed many times that it was all it was it was a case of the execution before the trial the idea of the o.p.c. w. going to damascus and into tomorrow was that they would investigate and determine whether chemical weapons were indeed used or not and it it should have. there should have been a patient period of waiting to find out what the outcome of that investigation was instead the assumption was as the rebels said that the syrian regime dropped chemical weapons on duma and that was that was seems to be enough you've written about chemical weapons used in the middle east over a decade a good way of getting rid of chemical weapons as strikes from missiles. flown from will planes are taking off from the mediterranean there has been a great inconsistency in western policy on the use of chemical weapons since one nine hundred eighty during the iran iraq war the united states favored saddam hussein using che

o.p.c. w. wanted russia not to go ahead with this today the o.p.c. w. wanted to wait until it had wrapped up its fact finding mission why would they say that why wouldn't they want every bit of information to hand both what they found on the field there and what russia had to say from the witnesses it put together doctors chemical specialists except for. well i know the o.t.c. w. didn't complain about. b.b.c. show alleged testimony from alleged victims in it live. who were making contrary claims through what we've just heard the o.t.c. w. were silent about that it seems to me they have perhaps been listening a bit too much to washington london and paris and begin to worry a little bit about the impartiality i mean when you've got doctors that purport to be on the ground there witnesses that purport they say they were most definitely there on the say as it happened caught up with it they describe how they were caught up in it was international reaction going to be to this are going to be ignored do you think what she got feeling on it tonight the only help the couple of hours ago o

o.p.c. w. report and we've also had a line from the foreign secretary here boris johnson he's already said that there can be no doubt that russia was behind the attack although there's nothing to that effect in this p.c. w. summary at least in fact the information that we have isn't particularly new nor is it sensational it's simply independent verification of the facts that we already had about the specific. weapon used but where it came from is still very much the source of debate throughout the scandal over this square pile attack the british government hasn't revealed many details about why it's come to this conclusion that the blame should be laid at moscow's door certainly we haven't seen anything to confirm that in this document today and as has the if explains fear of the questions surrounding the case have been on said there was no trial no discussion no evidence no proof there was only judgement and punishment is highly likely that russia was responsible be to hold russia culpable culpable culpable for the attempted murder the pundits needed even less the name nuvi chalk sounds russia

saying he's far more right wing than some of the american these clowns as well now we've just had the o.p.c. w. announced that they will investigate the syrian alleged chemical attack but why do you think we have the rest already rushing to threaten military action before that probe has even been started let alone complete. so this is a tried and tested formula of the last seven years the west make their mind up even before a minute has passed for any action on the ground the russians and the syrians have said they will give protection and go in to check what's happened on the ground but of course no one's interested because they were ready made to mine and in this case the americans the europeans and the british have always wanted to be the judge jury and executioner and you can't do that any crime that's committed you you need to look at the evidence but if no one wants to look at the evidence then you want to look the other way. given that do you think there's any possibility that britain will agree with blair and go ahead and back military intervention in syria. i think so i mean unless th

o.p.c. w. not everybody wants to hear what he had to say is more aghast yet explains when these reviews emerged pundits and politicians took them as gospel the truth conclusive indisputable and irrefutable proof of assad's chemical since the chemical weapon that killed dozens of civilians and the stairs that the us had regime has previously used in chemical attacks the assad regime has used this same yellow gas canisters the n.s.c. telling fox news they have a high degree of confidence that it was yours they must have had solid evidence you don't just launch a hundred cruise missiles in an act of war without convincing proof beyond any doubt right right. wrong. we were in the basement and then heard someone outside scream go to hospital we were scared they started to pour water on me i don't know why they did this. pundits and politicians who've never been to syria where it happened witnesses the locals who were there in the hospital in question say they didn't see a thing all the exhaust was white helmets dousing confused of aliens with water neither did the doctors see anything. on the sevent
