Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that, after the recent chemical attack on the Idlib Governorate in Syria and the resultant US missile attack on a Syrian airbase, there is a threat against moving the peaceful settlement forward in Syria, reported RIA Novosti news agency of Russia.

“In recent days, a threat has been established toward moving forward in all directions,” Lavrov noted, in particular, during the joint news conference with his Qatari counterpart, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani.
