His view is also that it further highlights the need to move forward with a political solution, because there’s no military solution to what’s happening on the ground. And he also felt that he still believes that we are on the same page as the Russians in terms of the purpose of the Syria conference, in terms of the goals at hand, the desire to bring an end to the suffering and put in place a process for a transitional government,"Jean Peseki said when asked in recent years about evidence that Russia provided arms and supplies to the Assad government.
At a press briefing with Jean Peseki, representative from Secretary of State John Kerry's office, the information from Reuters about Russia's involvement was provided, as reporters gathered for the regular updates on various situations around the world at the time. These updates are given daily on various policy issues.
Russia, it was reported, stepped up giving military supplies to the regime of Syria's President Bashar al-Assad, even as State Department officials were questioned about America's potential response to this issue, specifically as the agonies of the civilian population have been widely reported.
Yet there were also reports of the Western intervention in the civilian protests in Syria and the increased militarization of these protests that have accelerated and exacerbated the humanitarian crisis that presently is seen by international aid agencies as among the worst the world has ever witnessed.
The Center for Global Research wrotes that when the US added the al-Nusra Front to the list of terrorist organizations, the backlash created more fuel for a war within a war with The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Da’āsh) pitted against all others in the insurgency, including al-Nusra Front.
The Center proclaims that this "end result was further exacerbation of the Syrian humanitarian crisis, for which the United States & partner “friends” could not be absolved of responsibility and should be held accountable.
The responsibility of the insurgency, which is politically sponsored, financed, armed and logistically facilitated by them, is now unfolding to uncover the fact that the militarization of the early legitimate peaceful protests has created the largest humanitarian crisis in the world today by the military tactics the insurgents used."
So as the United States has been angry with Russia for arming Assad, the pattern of US involvement in militarizing groups whose agendas themselves have increased the overall civilian strife, have brought death and destruction in Syria and other parts of the globe, the Center has said.
