Data emisji: Wrz 12, 2013

While in London, US secretary of state, John Kerry made a rhetoric suggestion that the only way for Syria to avoid a US attack would be for it to place all its chemical weapons under international supervision within a week. This was immediately followed by the Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov, who promised to start working with Damascus to realize this idea. So right now, the Russian proposal is welcomed by Syria, Germany, the UK, and even the US is onboard. It seems like a great catastrophe has been averted and its all thanks to the ingenious Russians. Although this might be a genuine exit strategy for the US, the practicality of this proposal is much more complex.
