The material is reached according to the report in the past two weeks into the war-torn country. In addition, vehicles were delivered separately.

Syria Civil War:”Protect children from toxic gas”

US President Barack Obama had the Syrian leadership for the poison gas attack of 21 August threatened a military strike. Hundreds of people had died in the use of chemical weapons, including many children.

The planned military strike pushed Obama on however – his political wavering course in recent weeks brought him a lot of criticism. In his speech to the nation on the night of Wednesday, the US president also stressed his troops stood ready to continue, “to maintain the pressure on Assad.” The US is not the world police, “but if you can protect children from being gassed, you should do it.”

However, this attitude criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has traditionally been allied with the Syrian leadership. In an opinion article for the “New York Times” Putin calls it “alarming” that a military intervention in internal conflicts of foreign states in the US had become a habit.

He also insists on its proposal to destroy the poison gas arsenal of the Syrian regime under international control. However, experts have strong concerns, and Washington responded behave.

Now the United States and Russia negotiate directly again. The foreign ministers of both countries, John Kerry and Sergei Lavrov will meet on Thursday afternoon in Geneva. Diplomats in Geneva said that the ministers would first be discussed bilaterally between the respective performances without the participation of the United Nations and seek consensus.

It is already clear after US view: There will be no quick diplomatic solution to the conflict in the Syrian chemical weapons. A time limit as to when the regime of Bashar al-Assad in power must comply with the proposal to eliminate its chemical weapons to a US military strike fails, calling not a US spokesman.
