Who's to blame for the rise of Al-Qaeda in Syria? Published on Jan 30, 2013 by  PressTVGlobalNews :: France has said the developments in Syria have been unfolding against what Paris had hoped for, namely the fall of President Bashar al-Assad. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius recently said, "Things are not moving. The solution that we had hoped for, and by that I mean the fall of Bashar and the arrival of the (opposition) coalition to power, has not happened."

On November 26, 2012, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev censured the French government for supporting the militants in Syria and said, "The desire to change a political regime in another state through recognition of some political force as the sole sovereign representative seems to me not entirely civilized."
