Berlin Warns Of ˈVery Dangerous Situationˈ After Israeli Raid On Syria

Berlin, Feb 2, IRNA -- German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle here on Friday warned of a ˈvery dangerous situationˈ in the Middle East in the aftermath of a deadly Israeli air raid on Syria. While Westerwelle refused to comment on the Israeli aggression in Syria at a joint news conference with European Union top diplomat Catherine Ashton, he did voice his concern over the dramatically deteriorating security situation. He urged all parties ˈto act prudently and exerciseˈ caution, highlighting the ˈvery dangerous situationˈ in the Middle East. Meanwhile, Ashton echoed Westerwelleˈs remarks stressing these were ˈreal challenging times.ˈ She also reiterated the need for a political solution to the Syrian crisis. Germany is a die-hard ally of the Zionist regime and normally refuses to condemn Israelˈs military aggression against its Arab neighbors or in the Palestinian-run territories./end
