# Putin: ‘Chemical Attack’ In Syria Staged To Justify U.S. Invasion

April 8, 2018 Sean Adl-Tabatabai News, World 0

President Putin claims the chemical attack in Syria on Sunday was orchestrated by the U.S. Deep State in order to justify an illegal invasion of the country.

The Russian Foreign Ministry denounced reports of a chemical attack that allegedly affected dozens of civilians in Douma, claiming that the attack was perpetrated by the Al-Qaeda affiliated White Helmets – an organization who have a history of conducting ‘false flag’ attacks in Syria.

Last month, Russia warned that a false flag involving the use of chemical weapons was being prepared in order to justify a US strike against the Assad regime.

“New provocations with the use of chemical weapons are being prepared – performances will be organised in Eastern Ghouta, among others,” Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told reporters in March.

Is it really conceivable that, on the verge of victory against ISIS, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad would launch a chemical weapons attack that would bring down the fury of the world?

Rt.com reports: Russia has warned about a false-flag chemical attack being prepared in the recent months, the ministry said. Those who are not interested in a genuine political settlement of the Syrian crisis are seeking to complicate the situation on the ground, it added.

“The goal of this… baseless speculation is to shield the terrorists and… the radical opposition that refuse to engage in a political settlement [process], as well as to justify potential military strikes from the outside,” the statement said. It then warned that any military interference in Syria conducted under “far-fetched or fabricated pretexts” would be “absolutely unacceptable” and could lead to “dire consequences.”

Meanwhile, the reports by various rebel-linked activists about the alleged chemical incident in Douma seem to have provoked yet another wave of hysteria in the West. US President Donald Trump rushed to denounce the unconfirmed attack as a “mindless” atrocity and a “humanitarian disaster for no reason whatsoever.” He also warned that those behind the alleged attack ‘will pay a big price.’

> Many dead, including women and children, in mindless CHEMICAL attack in Syria. Area of atrocity is in lockdown and encircled by Syrian Army, making it completely inaccessible to outside world. President Putin, Russia and Iran are responsible for backing Animal Assad. Big price…

> — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 8, 2018

> ….to pay. Open area immediately for medical help and verification. Another humanitarian disaster for no reason whatsoever. SICK!

> — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 8, 2018

Accusations against the Syrian government and Russia soon followed. In his Twitter posts, Trump declared “President [Vladimir] Putin, Russia and Iran… responsible” for the attack because of their backing for Syrian President Bashar Assad. Earlier, the US State Department also said that “Russia ultimately bears responsibility for the brutal targeting of countless Syrians with chemical weapons.”

However, US officials admitted that they were unable to independently verify any information about the alleged incident and had to rely solely on “reports” made by rebel-linked sources. This is not the first time that reports of chemical attacks pinned on Damascus have surfaced on social media.

Moscow had warned that unconfirmed reports of atrocities and false-flag chemical incidents were likely to appear at a time when militant factions are losing ground in Syria. The latest report came as the Syrian Army pushed to liberate the remaining militant-occupied settlements in the Damascus suburb of Eastern Ghouta, with the city of Douma being the last such city in the area.

It comes as Jaysh al-Islam militants holding the city of Douma reportedly held talks with government forces and agreed to leave the enclave. Damascus said on March 31 that nearly all militant-held settlements in Ghouta were liberated, and a major Syrian highway had been cleared after a seven-year militant blockade.

In February 2018, Syrian troops began the operation to retake the area that has been under militant control since 2012, and Russia brokered the creation of humanitarian corridors to allow locals to escape the siege. A total of 153,240 people have left the area through humanitarian corridors since the start of the operation, according to the Russian Defense Ministry’s Center for Syrian Reconciliation.
