I will return to Russian support and respect for the national sovereignty of Syria and non-interference by outside powers. Why does that not apply to the Russian view of Ukraine? Sending in troops is an act of aggression. I again ask the ambassador to answer my question on how Russia could use its influence in Syria to bring an end to that humanitarian crisis.
