Washington – Sputnik.
The head of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Zaid bin Raad al-Hussein, said that the Commission is not ready to believe the story of the Syrian events on what happened in Douma before granting the Syrian authorities access to the country to representatives of the Commission.

“If the Syrian authorities want us to believe the events of the authorities, they should allow us to enter the country,” Hussein told Sputnik. As long as they do not allow us to enter, I do not believe what they say, they are a party to the conflict. ”
According to him, UN human rights experts have been unable to enter Syria for about a year. The High Commissioner confirmed that the Commission has its own information on the possibility of using chemicals in the Syrian city of Douma from sources in Syria.

“We have many relations in the country and we communicate directly with them,” he said, asking about the information that issued a statement about the incident in Douma.

According to the High Commissioner, “the use of chemical weapons becomes normal in Syria.”

On April 14, the United States, France and Britain launched a missile attack against Syria in response to an alleged chemical attack in the eastern city of Douma.

The Syrian authorities have categorically denied involvement in the so-called alleged chemical accident, in what Moscow called a fabricated pretext to create conditions for a military strike by the West against Syria.
