BRUSSLES, (SANA) – Secretary General of NATO Anders Fogh Rasmussen denied any intention to interfere in the current discussions at the European Union regarding arming “Syrian opposition”.

About the rumors of the possibility of deploying peace forces in Syria –turkey border at the request of the opposition, Rasmussen said” in my opinion it is not necessary to deploy peace forces along the boards.”
