Συρία: «Δεν υποκύπτουμε ακόμα κι αν γίνει Γ' Παγκόσμιος Πόλεμος». -Δηλώσεις του υφυπουργού Εξωτερικών.



Το συριακό καθεστώς δεν θα υποκύψει απέναντι στις απειλές της Δύσης για στρατιωτικό πλήγμα εναντίον της Συρίας, «ακόμη κι αν γίνει ο τρίτος παγκόσμιος πόλεμος», δήλωσε ο υφυπουργός Εξωτερικών της χώρας, Φάισαλ Μόκνταντ. 

"Η συριακή κυβέρνηση δεν θα αλλάξει στάση ακόμη και αν γίνει ο τρίτος παγκόσμιος πόλεμος. Κανένας Σύρος δεν μπορεί να θυσιάσει την ανεξαρτησία της πατρίδας του" είπε ο Μόκνταντ, σε αποκλειστικές δηλώσεις του στο Γαλλικό Πρακτορείο.

Ο Σύρος αξιωματούχος τόνισε ότι η Δαμασκός θα κινητοποιήσει τους συμμάχους της απέναντι στον γαλλοαμερικανικό άξονα και πρόσθεσε ότι το καθεστώς έχει λάβει όλα τα απαιτούμενα μέτρα για να αντιμετωπίσει ένα ενδεχόμενο πλήγμα από τη Δύση. "Δεν πρόκειται να δώσουμε πληροφορίες για τον τρόπο με τον οποίο θα απαντήσει η Συρία (...). Η Συρία έλαβε όλα τα μέτρα για να απαντήσει σε μια τέτοια επίθεση", είπε.

  • "Οι ΗΠΑ και οι σύμμαχοί τους αυτή τη στιγμή κινητοποιούν τους συμμάχους τους ενόψει μιας επίθεσης εναντίον της Συρίας. Νομίζω ότι και η Συρία, από την πλευρά της, έχει το δικαίωμα να κινητοποιήσει τους δικούς της συμμάχους και αυτοί οι τελευταίοι θα της παράσχουν κάθε είδους υποστήριξη" συνέχισε, χωρίς να υπεισέλθει σε λεπτομέρειες για το θέμα αυτό.

  • Syria says will not give in 'even if there is WWIII'

DAMASCUS: Syria's deputy foreign minister said Wednesday that the regime would not give in to threats of a US-led military strike against the country, even if a third world war kicked off.

"The Syrian government will not change position even if there is World War III. No Syrian can sacrifice the independence of his country," Faisal Muqdad said in an exclusive interview with AFP.

  1. Syria says will not give in 'even if there is WWIII'...

    Syria's deputy foreign minister Faisal Muqdad said on Wednesday the regime would not give in to threats of a US-led military strike against the country, even if a third world war erupts.

    In an exclusive interview with AFP, Faisal Muqdad said the government had taken "every
    measure" to counter a potential intervention aimed at punishing the regime of Bashar al-Assad over a suspected deadly poison gas strike and was mobilising its allies.

    "The Syrian government will not change position even if there is World War III. No Syrian can sacrifice the independence of his country," he said.

    "Syria has taken every measure to retaliate against... an aggression," he added, refusing to provide any clue as to what that might mean.

    Muqdad said the regime was mobilising its allies ahead of a possible strike, as US President Barack Obama lobbies Congress to back intervention and the French parliament debates the issue.

    Washington says the alleged chemical weapons attack on August 21 in suburbs of Damascus killed more than 1,400 people and blames it on the Assad regime – a claim it categorically denies.

  2. Siria, Obama: il mondo non può restare in silenzio....Damasco: pronti anche alla III guerra mondiale....

    ROMA - «Non ripeteremo l'errore dell'Iraq». Il presidente Usa Barack Obama da Stoccolma ostenta sicurezza sull'operazione Siria. Gli Usa hanno «un elevato grado di sicurezza» che gli attacchi chimici siano stati commessi dal regime di Bashar al Assad, aggiunge precisando che «di fronte alla barbarie che si sta verificando la comunità internazionale non può restare in silenzio».

    Lo spettro Iraq. In una conferenza stampa insieme con il premier svedese Fredrik Reinfeldt, Obama ha detto: «Ricordatevi che mi ero opposto alla guerra in Iraq e non ho nessuna voglia di ripetere gli errori basandomi su decisioni scaturite da una intelligence difettosa». «Non ho fissato io la linea rossa sull'uso delle armi chimiche, ma è stata la comunità internazionale», ha precisato Barack. «Sono convinto che il Congresso approverà un'azione militare in Siria, un'azione limitata nei tempi e negli obiettivi», ha spiegato sottolineando che «è in gioco la credibilità non solo mia, ma del Congresso e dell'America».
    «Non ero tenuto a sottoporre all'approvazione del Congresso la proposta di un'azione militare, e averlo deciso non vuole essere un mero e vuoto esercizio. Ma come 'Commander in Chief' mi riservo il diritto di agire nell'interesse e per la sicurezza del Paese», ha spiegato.

    I rapporti con Putin. «Sono ancora fiducioso sul fatto che Putin possa cambiare la sua posizione per quel che riguarda il sostegno della Russia al regime di Assad: è l'auspicio espresso a Stoccolma dal presidente Usa Barack Obama. «Tra noi e la Russia rimangono molte differenze sulla Siria. La Russia ha relazioni di vecchia data col regime di Assad. Ma è impossibile per Assad riguadagnare credibilità». Il Congresso degli Stati Uniti non ha il diritto di «legittimare un'aggressione» contro la Siria, ha detto il presidente russo Vladimir Putin, sottolineando che solo una decisione del Consiglio di Sicurezza dell'Onu può votare un intervento del genere.

    MacCain si sfila. Intanto però John McCain ha annunciato che voterà contro la bozza frutto dell'intesa bipatisan in Senato sul via libera ai raid in Siria. Una defezione da parte dell'ex candidato repubblicano alla Casa Bianca cruciale per Barack Obama. McCain, uno degli esponenti più ascoltati nel partito repubblicano, sostenitore di un attacco senza troppi vincoli, non è evidentemente rimasto soddisfatto dai contenuti della risoluzione, a suo giudizio troppo 'tenerà con Assad e i nemici degli Usa nella regione. «Ci sono tanti che non sono contenti», ha detto spiegando il suo no.

    La Francia. Non agire contro le armi chimiche della Siria vorrebbe dire inviare un messaggio di debolezza nei riguardi del programma nucleare iraniano, ha detto, davanti al parlamento francese, il premier Jean-Marc Ayrault.

    Damasco. Non ci piegheremo nemmeno se ci fosse la terza guerra mondiale, ha proclamato il viceministro degli Esteri, Faysal Moqdad, citato dall'Afp. «Il governo siriano - ha detto il viceministro - non cambierà posizione nemmeno se ci fosse la terza guerra mondiale, nessun siriano può sacrificare l'indipendenza del Paese». Moqad ha poi aggiunto che Damasco ha già adottato «tutte le misure» necessarie per far fronte a «un'aggressione».

  3. Russia warns of catastrophe if Syria reactor hit by U.S. strike...

    (Reuters) - Russia said on Wednesday that a military strike on Syria could have catastrophic effects if a missile hit a small reactor near Damascus that contains radioactive uranium.

    The Foreign Ministry called on the U.N. nuclear agency to urgently assess the risk as the United States considers military action to punish Syria's government for an alleged gas attack.

    "If a warhead, by design or by chance, were to hit the Miniature Neutron Source Reactor (MNSR) near Damascus, the consequences could be catastrophic," a ministry statement said.

    It said nearby areas could be contaminated by highly enriched uranium and that it would be impossible to account for the nuclear material after such a strike, suggesting it could fall into the hands of people who might use it as a weapon.

    Russia urged the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency secretariat to "react swiftly" and present IAEA members "an analysis of the risks linked to possible American strikes on the MNSR and other facilities in Syria".

    Moscow has been the most powerful ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, shielding him from tougher U.N. resolutions and warning that a Western military attack on Syria would raise tensions and undermine efforts to end the country's civil war.

    The Vienna-based U.N. agency had no immediate comment on the Russian statement. The IAEA said in a report to member states last week that Syria had declared there was a "small amount of nuclear material" at the MNSR, a type of research reactor usually fuelled by highly enriched uranium.

    Nuclear expert Mark Hibbs, of the Carnegie Endowment think-tank, said the MNSR was a very small reactor and there would not be a lot of nuclear material there.

    But he said there could be "a serious local radiation hazard" if there was irradiated nuclear material in the reactor and it was dispersed by a weapon strike.

    Olli Heinonen, a former IAEA chief inspector, said the core of such a reactor typically has 1 kg of highly-enriched uranium, much less than the 25 kg that would be sufficient to build an atomic bomb.

    "Thus for nuclear explosive purposes it is of a limited value," he said in an e-mailed comment. Any radioactive contamination, he added, "would be a local problem".

    In 2007, Israel bombed a desert site in Syria that U.S. intelligence reports said was a nascent, North Korean-designed reactor geared to producing plutonium for nuclear weapons. Syria said the site, at Deir al-Zor, was a conventional military facility.
