لافروف:المعارضة السورية لن تهزم الجيش النظامي حتى لو سلحت الى اقصى حد
Read this story in English
صرح وزير الخارجية الروسي سيرغي لافروف اليوم الاربعاء ان المعارضة السورية "لن تستطيع الحاق الهزيمة" بقوات الرئيس بشار الاسد حتى لو تم تسليحها الى اقصى حد ممكن، كما نقلت عنه وكالة انترفاكس.
وقال لافروف خلال زيارة الى العاصمة الاذربيجانية باكو "من الواضح وضوح الشمس انه حتى لو تم تسليح المعارضة الى اقصى حد ممكن فانها لن تتمكن من الحاق الهزيمة بالجيش السوري ولن نشهد عندها سوى مذبحة تستمر لسنوات طويلة ودمارا متبادلا".
وجدد وزير الخارجية الروسي انتقاداته لمؤتمر "اصدقاء سوريا" معتبرا ان الحلفاء الغربيين والعرب للمعارضة السورية يسعون الى الحيلولة دون اجراء اي مفاوضات مع نظام الرئيس السوري بشار الاسد.
وقال ان "اصدقاء سوريا" يريدون ان "ترفض المعارضة المفاوضات، وقراراتهم تهدف الى تمويل وتسليح المعارضين وفرض عقوبات جديدة" على دمشق.
وكانت روسيا والصين استخدمتا حق الفيتو ضد مشروعي قرار في الامم المتحدة يدينان قمع حركة الاحتجاج السورية الذي اوقع نحو عشرة الاف قتيل منذ عام وفقا للمرصد السوري لحقوق الانسان.
الا ان موسكو وبكين تدعمان خطة الوسيط الاممي والعربي كوفي انان التي تنص على وقف كل شكل من اشكال العنف من قبل جميع الاطراف تحت اشراف الامم المتحدة وتقديم مساعدة انسانية واطلاق سراح المعتقلين تعسفيا.

and is time really on the regime's side? where would the economy/institutions/defections be a year from now? what would be the popular support for the regime be even amongst its staunch supporters? lavrov is actually doing the revolution a favor: if the regime is to triumph versus time does lavrov really need to plea for a deal (he is obv asking for one)? or does lavrov know that the recent gains are merely an illusion and that success in attacking people is one thing, occupation is another.

So Russia is the country that the Syrian Opposition wants to see and that the Syrian government goes to see as well. See what the US - Israeli alliance has cost the US. No credibility with anyone, no one comming to Washington to get solutions and no leverage to resolve these issues. All of this is with Russia, by American default. This is the price that is paid to be Israel's friend. And then after paying that price, Israel thumbs its nose at the US and even involves itself in domestic American presidential politics trying to play one side against the other to affect the outcome best fitted to Israeli interests rather than the interests of the United States.

I think that the title is wrong but those have been suggested are wrong too. The best title must be: Putin and Lavrov elaborate two opposition groups.

I see this as a plea from lavrov to reach a middle ground and save the regime before it is too late, what he did not say (and acutally inferred in his statement) is that the regime can not defeat the revolution, is time really on the regime's side in this case?..some mathematical objective facts: let's assume this drags on for another year and let us assume that the opposition forces could not "defeat" the regime like lavrov says; nevertheless, we can imagine a protracted resilient guerilla war that gets better armed/trained/efficient versus time and a regime forces' morale and control eroding. Where would the Syrian economy and government institutions be when the majority of syrian territory becomes unsafe? is the regime gaining or losing popular support versus time? Add more defections from the army to the mix..the result in the best case russian scenario is a regime technicaly alive but realisticaly dead
