Chemical arms claims ‘barefaced lie’: minister
Sun, 28 April 2013
MOSCOW — US and British accusations that the regime in Damascus may have used chemical weapons are a "barefaced lie," Syria's information minister told Russian TV yesterday. "First of all, I want to confirm that statements by the US Secretary of State and British government are inconsistent with reality and a barefaced lie," Omran al Zohbi said in an interview published on the Kremlin-funded RT's website. "I want to stress one more time that Syria would never use it — not only because of its adherence to the international law and rules of leading war, but because of humanitarian and moral issues," Zohbi said. — AFP
