11 G20 States Urge 'Strong Response' to Syria Chemical Attack
[An Nahar] Eleven G20 states on Friday called for a "strong international response" to a chemical weapons attack in Syria they said was clearly carried out by the regime.
"Manolo! Fetch me the stiff notepaper... and my best calligraphy pen. There's a strong response to be written!" | "The evidence clearly points to the Syrian government being responsible for the attack, which is part of a pattern of chemical weapons use by the regime," said the statement which was supported by states including Britannia, La Belle France and the United States.
"We call for a strong international response to this grave violation of the world's rules and conscience that will send a clear message that this kind of atrocity can never be repeated," said the statement which was released by the White House.
