Jun 20, 2013
London-Berlin (SANA)_German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle renewed
his country’s rejection of sending weapons to the “Syrian opposition”
and the need for finding a political solution to the crisis in Syria.
During a press conference in the German Nuremberg city, Westerwelle
said that “those who are exporting weapons to the Syrian opposition
have to make sure that they do not fall into the hands of Jihadists
and terrorists.”
The German FM stressed rejection of military solution in Syria,
indicating that “we have to focus on the political solution even if
it has slim chances for success.”
“We are working to settle the crisis in Syria and will continue to do
so, closely cooperating with France and the US because that’s what
we have to do as representatives of the international community,”
Britain’s Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg told BBC Thursday, adding
” But at the same time, we do not want to get involved in a military
crisis.”
Britain’s Prime Minister, David Cameron said Wednesday that solving
the crisis in Syria should be political, indicating that “the military
victories won’t solve the issue in Syria.”
