Re: Syria
The missile strikes by the United States, France and the United Kingdom on Syria on April 14 indicate that the policy of the United States is reaching a dead end. What was the reason behind these strikes? Were they made in order to change the foreign policy of Syria, Russia and Iran supporting the Syrian army? Or to give military support for the terrorist groups that were defeated when the last of their strongholds in Duma, in the suburbs of Damascus, was destroyed?
It's already clear that this act of aggression went beyond the framework of international law, flouting the United Nations Charter. The U.S. is trying to establish its own order in the Middle East, and particularly in Syria, without the sanction of the U.N. Security Council.
The U.S. has now gone the distance of conducting a direct military invasion. However, the U.S. missile strikes on the Syrian army only show that the U.S. has lost its temper, causing huge damage to its image and its foreign policy in the Middle East, especially in light of the fact that international terrorist groups in Syria are being destroyed in attacks by the Syrian army with the support of the Russian air force as well as advisers and volunteers from Iran and Hezbollah. I believe that the U.S. launched these missile strikes not so much to destroy the Syrian government, but to reassert itself. The United States has tried to appear before the world as a global power, restoring its hegemony in the world. However, it has turned out differently.

Re: Syria
China's perspective
The facts cannot be distorted. This military strike was not authorized by the UN, and the strikes targeted a legal government of a UN member state. The US and its European allies launched strikes to punish President Bashar al-Assad for a suspected chemical attack in Duma last weekend. However, it has not been confirmed if the chemical weapons attack happened or if it did, whether government forces or opposition forces launched it. International organizations have not carried out any authoritative investigation.
The Syrian government has repeatedly stressed that there is no need for it to use chemical weapons to capture the opposition-controlled Duma city and the use of chemical weapons has provided an excuse for Western intervention. The Syrian government's argument or Trump's accusations against the "evil" Assad regime, which one is in line with basic logic? The answer is quite obvious.
The US has a record of launching wars on deceptive grounds. The Bush government asserted the Saddam regime held chemical weapons before the US-British coalition troops invaded Iraq in 2003. However, the coalition forces didn't find what they called weapons of mass destruction after overthrowing the Saddam regime. Both Washington and London admitted later that their intelligence was false.
Washington's attack on Syria where Russian troops are stationed constitute serious contempt for Russia's military capabilities and political dignity. Trump, like scolding a pupil, called on Moscow, one of the world's leading nuclear powers, to abandon its "dark path." Disturbingly, Washington seems to have become addicted to mocking Russia in this way. Russia is capable of launching a destructive retaliatory attack on the West. Russia's weak economy is plagued by Western sanctions and squeezing of its strategic space. That the West provokes Russia in such a manner is irresponsible for world peace.

Re: Syria
Syria has returned to France the prestigious Legion d'honneur presented to President Bashar al-Assad, saying he would not wear the award of a country that was a "slave" to America.
