YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 12, ARMENPRESS: Issue of foreign military
intervention in Syrian conflict is temporary suspended.
"Armenpress" reports that such opinion expressed arabists Armen
Petrosyan and Sargis Grigoryan during press conference on September 12.
"In sense of foreign intervention in Syrian conflict is in a state of
temporary stop or "time out". USA agreed temporary consensus which
is conditioned with several reasons - US arguments for military
attack on Syria were not considered credible neither inside America
nor among its allies. The second important reason was that military
attack could cause rather unpredictable consequences.
Although it was about targeted attacks but it is a fact that nobody
could predict in what direction it would develop," noticed Armen
Petrosyan mentioning that in case of military intervention the
possibility of unleashing regional war was great.
In his words the expectation on G20 summit were realized and in
future its results were strengthened at first with John Kerry's speech
and then with the consensus made between Russian and Syrian foreign
ministers. "USA agreed to change the version of military intervention
with the version of peaceful settlement of the conflict.
Now it is Russia's turn to act," said Armen Petrosyan adding that
Russia suggestion on establishing international control over Syria's
chemical weapons is unilateral. "Yet it is not approved which side used
chemical weapon. This initiative is directed only to Syrian government
but it would be more balanced in case it was directed to both sides,"
mentioned the arabist.
Sargis Grigoryan does not share the optimism on peaceful settlement of
Syrian conflict mentioning that current processes take the settlement
of the conflict to deadlock. "I think there are not prerequisites
that trends to settle Syrian conflict peacefully will be noticed in
the policy of foreign forces," mentioned arabist Sargis Grigoryan. In
his definition suspension of US military attack is directed against
Syrian government. "Syrian government loses chemical weapon which
strengthened its positions inside the country. The fact of being
deprived from chemical weapon is beneficial for Israel and USA,"
mentioned Sargis Grigoryan.
The situation in Syria was aggravated on August 21 when media informed
about using chemical weapons in suburbs of Damascus.
According to some resources 600-1300 people were killed because of it.
After the incident Syrian governmental forces and oppositions announced
for many times about their non-participation in the incident blaming
each other in it. Syrian government on August 25 allowed UN experts
to visit possible places of chemical attacks. Experts left Syria on
August 31. On the same day US President Barack Obama announced about
military attack on Syria in case of approval of Congress. On September
9 official Moscow suggested to international community to come to
a consensus and as a way of peaceful settlement offered Damascus to
give the control over chemical weapons to international organizations.
