“Lavrov said that the US, Britain and other countries have assembled a ‘powerful force’ and are ‘readying their ships and planes’ for a possible invasion. The minister said that the development set the world on a ‘perilous path’ and warned that ‘repeating the Iraqi and Lybyan scenario’ and bringing in outside forces, would be a ‘terrible mistake that will lead to more blood being spilt’. The minister reserved particular outrage for the newly-mooted possibility of NATO staging a strike on chemical storage facilities without a United Nations mandate. Asked if Russia was going to join in the potential conflict on either side, Lavrov said ‘We have no plans to go to war, but we hope that others think of long-term interests.'”
