Syria slams British meddling after intervention signal

[rss]

Syria's foreign ministry on Sunday condemned British "interference" in its affairs, after a senior government minister signaled Britain was moving closer to military action in the war-torn country. State news agency SANA said the foreign ministry had sent two letters to United Nations chiefs which objected to "brazen standpoints" taken by British officials, and accused Britain and France of a "colonialist" agenda. On Saturday, finance minister George Osborne said Britain and Europe had to find a way to tackle the conflict in Syria, which has fueled Europe's biggest refugee crisis since World War Two, and described the government of President Bashar al-Assad as "evil." "You've got to deal with the problem at source, which is this evil Assad regime and the ISIL (Islamic State) terrorists, and you need a comprehensive plan for a more stable, peaceful Syria," Osborne told Reuters in an interview.
