敘利亞拒絕聯合國調查化學武器小組

The Syrian government has rejected a request by United Nations chief Ban Ki-Moon to Allow a team of inspectors to investigate the use of chemical weapons in the country's civil war.

Syria's foreign ministry says the government is willing to allow the inspectors into the village of Khan al-Assal, near Aleppo, where the rebels were alleged to have used chemical weapons last month.

Mr. Ban said Monday that an investigating team is ready to deploy in the country within 24 hours, suggesting that it be allowed to investigate reports of chemical attacks throughout the country.

The Syrian foreign ministry rejected that proposal saying it would be a violation of Syrian sovereignty.

Both the government and rebels opposed to President Assad have traded accusations about the use of chemical weapons.敘利亞政府拒絕了聯合國祕書長潘基文提出的一項有關准許檢查員小組調查化學武器被用於敘利亞內戰的要求。

敘利亞外交部說，敘利亞政府願意准許檢查員進入阿勒頗附近的汗阿爾阿薩爾村，據稱反政府武裝上月在那裏使用了化學武器。

潘基文星期一說，調查組準備在24小時之內進入敘利亞，並表示將准許調查組審查有關敘利亞各地使用化學武器的報告。

敘利亞外交部拒絕了這一提議，聲稱這將侵犯敘利亞主權。

敘利亞政府和反對阿薩德總統的反政府武裝相互指責對方使用化學武器。
