EU says before full UN report then attack to Syria

03 September 2013 [17:05] - TODAY.AZ
The international community should wait for UN inspectors to complete their report on the use of chemical weapons in Syria before taking action, an EU spokesman said Tuesday, dpa reported.

"We of course condemn in the strongest terms the attack and we call for the international community to take strong action ... But let's wait until definitive information has been drawn together before we do that, particularly by the UN inspectors," said Michael Mann, a spokesman for foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.

Ashton is also waiting for the report before blaming the Syrian regime, he said, but acknowledged there is no "evidence to the contrary."
