The situation in Syria is just a warm-up before a real confrontation, which will draw Russia and China into action, believes Lawrence Freeman from the Executive Intelligence Review magazine.
Russia and China are rightly worried about what is behind the policy of the US and its allies in Syria and Iran, Freeman told RT.
President Obama is acting on a British geopolitical plan to force a confrontation with Russia and China, a military confrontation of which Syrian and Iran would nearly be the ignition point, Freeman explained. But the real goal is a war to stop the progress that Russia and China are engulfed in.
Lawrence Freeman says that the International Criminal Court is being used as an instrument to carry out regime change with a smoke screen of human rights protection.
The Russians and the Chinese are seeing this played out again and they are beginning to respond, he said. Especially the Russians, they are responding militarily by sending the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier to the Syrian borders.
It is a risky game, Freeman admits, but he thinks that Russians are aware of the danger of what could happen if they do not do it.
This could result and I think the Russians and the Chinese are aware of this this could result in World War III, he said. So this is extremely dangerous, and measures have to be taken now to stop these policies by President Obama and the British.
Political analyst Marcus Papadopoulos agrees that Russia will not allow the situation in Syria to end up as it did in Libya.
The difference between Syria and Libya is the Russian factor, he told RT. Russia has made it very clear that what happened Libya will not happen in Syria and theyve already vetoed a resolution at this Security Council, so of course theres going to be a lot more talk by the UN of what can be done but I think the Russian factor will prove to be a critical one.
He also voiced his opinion on how to resolve the present crisis.
What needs to happen is that the international community needs to act as a mediator between the Syrian government and the opposition parties, he said. And unfortunately its not helping how the American, British and French governments are demonizing President Assad and theyre taking the side of the Syrian opposition.
