British PM Cameron tells Syria president “it’s time to go” / Syria Conflict

British Prime Minister David Cameron has heaped pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin to back UN sanctions against Syria.

Cameron has also called on Syrian president Bashar al-Assad to fall on his sword. Speaking during a visit to the Afghan capital Kabul on Thursday, Cameron said: “I have a very clear message for President Assad. It is time for him to go.

“It is time for transition in the regime. If there isn’t transition it’s quite clear there’s going to be civil war.”

He added: “My message to President Putin is it’s time for the UN security council to pass clear and tough messages about sanctions.”
David Cameron was commenting a day after rebels penetrated the heart of Syria’s government elite, detonating a bomb inside a crisis meeting in Damascus that killed three leaders of the regime, including President Assad’s brother-in-law and the defence minister. The United Nations is expected to vote later on Thursday on a new British-crafted Syria resolution after a last-minute delay failed to get key countries to agree on measures to end the violence.

The resolution threatens non-military sanctions against President Assad’s government if he does not withdraw troops and heavy weapons from populated areas within 10 days.
It is also tied to Chapter VII of the UN Charter, which could eventually allow the use of force to end the conflict.

  1. I like the sanderling as well as the least sandpiper, usually appreciate viewing images that ended up manufactured at ultra low angle. Considering the equipments the photographer utilized to make those images I’m really impressed! Great photographer can make great images, not great equipments make good images
