"Mr President, I am going to make a different proposal from supporting a plan that, as has been said here today, is as dead as the Syrian children. I am sure you have heard of
Baroness Ashton. It is the Russian arms trade agency that is backed by the State, for which it makes thousands of millions in profits. It is also the main supplier of arms to Syria, and its other main clients are the United States and India.
Perhaps Russia – and I do not know whether you raised this issue during the recent EU-Russia Summit in St Petersburg – will adjust its position in the United Nations Security Council if, through the influence that we should have on India and other clients of this Russian state company, its profits from the sale of arms are threatened.
Moreover, perhaps also the European Union – as part of the international community – as well as the United Nations, Kofi Annan and his plan, which has failed, will save ourselves from being condemned by the international community for failing in our duty to help the Syrian people, as I believe that is already the case.
Let us try other channels, because it seems that those we have tried and put into practice so far are not working."@en1
