"Russia has asked the UN Security Council to meet on Friday to discuss the threat of US-led military action in Syria, diplomats said Thursday (12 April).


The request was submitted after Russian Ambassador to the UN Vassily Nebenzia said the priority was to avoid US-led strikes on Syria that could lead to a dangerous confrontation between Washington and Moscow. France and the United States threaten the regime of Bashar al-Assad and his Russian ally since the recent chemical attack in the rebel city of Douma, in eastern Ghouta, fell on Thursday at the hands of the Syrian army.
"


Perhaps the request is valid, but it should include also a discussion of the presence of Turkish and Russian military in Syria.
