Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Syria’s chemical arms handover will only work if the US and its allies renounce the use of force against Damascus.

"Of course, all of this will only mean anything if the United States and other nations supporting it tell us that they're giving up their plan to use force against Syria. You can’t really ask Syria, or any other country, to disarm unilaterally while military action against it is being contemplated," President Putin said on Tuesday.
President Putin said that the matter of bringing Syria’s chemical weapons under international control has long been a subject of discussion by experts and politicians.
Putin confirmed that he and President Barack Obama had “indeed discussed” such a possibility on the sidelines of the G20 summit in St. Petersburg last week.
It was agreed, Putin said, “to instruct Secretary of State [John Kerry] and Foreign Minister [Sergey Lavrov] to work together and see if they can achieve some progress in this regard."
President Putin’s comments came shortly after the Syrian government said it would agree to place its chemical weapons arsenal under international control.
On Tuesday, Britain, France and the US said they would table a resolution on Syrian chemical weapons to the UN Security Council later in the day.
An emergency closed-door meeting at the Security Council is scheduled to take place at 4:00pm EST (20:00 GMT), the UN press office said.
"If this is a serious proposal, then we should act accordingly and I think a UN Security Council resolution is a good idea," British Prime Minister David Cameron said.

The US and UK and Euro governments better get it through their heads:
TV and print used to completely control information.
Nowadays, the cat is out of the bag via the internet.
More and more people are becoming aware of new world order.
And more and more politicans - BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT WING - are sounding like complete jackasses...
toting water for new world order.
Fine with me.
The longer they put off coming clean, the worse it gets for them.
New world order leadership should all face the guillotine.
All the world’s “war” problems would disappear overnight.
Only politicians backed by NWO have the courage to initiate illegitimate wars.
A “real person” politician would be FAR too afraid to call for war.
Which is why such politicians either get flipped or dumped by their political machines.
This is what Obama meant when he implemented two radically dangerous policies:
Reset with Russia
Softpower projection
Now we will all pay the consequences for his inept policies and performance.
If I had a son, he'd look like Vladimir Putin...
They should talk to Mummar Gadaffi about this move. Oh wait. he’s dead. never mind.
Oh here we go. We drop the weapons first when they raised them first. Bwahahahaah
First obama builds his own box, then Putin drives obama into the box where he seems to like it, then Putin puts the lid on the box, so he carry the box with his new pet inside back to mother russia.
