Russia is joining the United States in its call on Syria President's Bashar al-Assad's government to permit the investigators of the United Nations to investigate proofs that point to a suspected chemical weapons attack this week.
The Foreign Ministry in Moscow has released a statement, a part of which said: "The Russian side called on the Syrian government to cooperate with the U.N. chemical experts,"
U.S., France and several countries are insisting on an investigation on the speculations that the attack was carried out with the use of poison gas which is said to have caused the death of hundreds of people.
The government of Syria denies its involvement in any chemical attack. The government news arm SANA reiterated that "such allegations are part of the dirty media war led by some countries against Syria."
United Nations secretary-general Ban Ki-moon was in a diplomatic forum on Friday, in South Korea and he said that he could not think of any good reason why either the opposition forces or the government would beg off from the chance to know what is true with regards the alleged attack.
An inspection team formed by the United Nations is already in Syria to begin the investigation. They are now in Damascus which is a few minutes away from the attack. They are set to investigate claims about chemical weapons but the conflict in the suburbs makes it impossible for the team to find out the truth behind the allegations.
British foreign secretary William Hague strongly believes that the Syrian government has something to do with the alleged chemical attack. According to Hague, it is very important for the United Nations investigation team to inspect the site and that time was of the essence. "It seems that the Assad regime has something to hide, why else have they not allowed the United Nations team to go there," he said.
Since conflict broke out in Syria, at least one million children have left the country for Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Egypt. This alarming number of misplaced children has prompted other, more influential countries to look for a solution.
