Russia is warning the U.S. against any “military intervention” in Syria over the government's alleged chemical attack against civilians this weekend, saying any such response would be “unacceptable” and lead to the “most serious consequences”.
The foreign ministry in Moscow also says in a statement on its website that allegations of the chemical attack are “fabricated,” suggesting the claims were invented by rebel forces and the Syrian Civil Defense known as the White Helmets.
“It is necessary to warn again that military intervention under invented and fabricated pretexts in Syria, where at the request of the lawful government there are Russian military personnel, is absolutely unacceptable and can lead to the most serious consequences,” the statement reads. “The aim of these false speculations, that have no basis, is to shield the terrorists and the irreconcilable radical opposition, who reject a political solution, at the same time while trying to justify possible armed strikes from outside.”
The alleged attack on Saturday killed 40 in the rebel-held town of Douma, multiple opposition and rescue groups including told The Associated Press, which was unable to independently verify the reports.
It came a year and a day after President Donald Trump ordered dozens of strikes on a Syrian regime air base for its alleged use of sarin gas on April 4, 2017, that killed approximately 100 people, according to the the State Department. More than 30 of the victims were children. The government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad denied carrying out the attack.

No I don’t. I’m an American. If Trump is stupid enough to fall for this steaming pile of McCain, then to hell with him.
Please move to Syria then. You will find better company there.
Hey, you are the one that wants a war. Pack your ass up and go join Al-Qeuda if you are so passionate about it.
Oh goodness. You’re in for a real treat these coming months and years...Your bubble will just keep bursting as God re-sets the world order. And the lies and gambles of despots like Putin and the Ayatollah Khomeini unravel.
So you speak for both God and Lindsey Graham?
That must be difficult.
Lindsey Graham is not our President.
I’m sure you regret that.
I think you’re the one regretting it dear Toll. Because now you can’t blame him. You will have to blame Trump. He holds the cards. He chooses his team.
We shall see. In the mean time, you are free to volunteer at anytime to fight for your beloved Saudi masters.
I did, but there’s nothing there that could come even close to an action. You talk like you have some inside info, so I’m curious what you know.
No, they did not turn over all of their WMD. Look it up. Russia was supposed to oversee its removal. Yeah, like that happened. There is plenty of proof that it did not.
If there’s anything we all love - it’s the United Nations Security Council! /just kidding of course
“But at a certain point, you will have to choose between Trump and Assad.”
No the choice is Trump’s. He must choose between honoring his positions and the people that got him elected, and the globalist Bush wing of the GOP.
It isn’t up to US to fall into line no matter what he does.
Love the responses in this thread. The pro-Hillary, neocon, regime-change cadre is a very small minority.
