France backs action on Syria as U.S. seeks coalition

“French President Francois Hollande gave a boost Friday to US hopes of forging an international coalition for possible strikes against Syria after British lawmakers rejected any involvement in military action.  The White House had signalled Thursday that President Barack Obama, guided by the ‘best interests’ of the United States, was ready to go it alone on Syria after deadly chemical weapons attacks last week.  But Russia, the Syrian regime’s most powerful ally, warned any military strikes would ‘deal a serious blow to the entire system of world order’. While Germany and Canada ruled out joining any military strikes, Hollande said the British vote would not affect his government’s stance.”
