The leaders of the Super Power Nations of the World Russia and USA finally shakes hands in Geneva today on the Syrian crisis as this is the beginning of a New World Order of the 21 century mankind.

US-Russian cooperation in Geneva over Syrian crisis is one of the greatest success in international cooperation and  mutual understanding and indeed a milestone of the 21 century for the United States to agree on joint action in partnership with her Superpower counterpart  The Russian Federation in the Question of Syria.
The entire world was apprehensive throughout the past few weeks over the United States warning to bombard Syria over its alleged killing opposition with the use of chemical weapons. This is a serious offense and the entire world would have ended up with a world war; as the Russian federation was backing Syria's Assad as it allied with the truth that it was the opposition that used the chemical weapons addressed to blackmail President Assad of Syria as in a set up- so as to whip up sentiments of the entire world against President Assad of Syria.

Prince Frank Onaivi Ukonga , the Chairman of SDP Edo state of Nigeria  who advised both the USA & the Russian Federation to go on dialogue over the entire issues of contemporary world including the cases of Syria, Iran, and North Korea lauds and praise President Barack Obama of USA for listening to his candid advice to him and also highly gratified with the diplomatic maturity of His Excellency President Vladimir Putin of the Russian federation.The entire world is proud of BOTH of you and the New World Order you are evolving will endear both leaders as perhaps the greatest of leaders of all times in the affairs of mankind of subsequent creation.

The New White House statement on the Syrian agreement

Russia and the US have agreed on an assessment that the Syrian government possesses 1,000 tonnes of chemical agents and precursors, according to a US official.

The US believes the materials are located in 45 sites, all in regime hands, half of which have useable quantities of chemical agents, the official added.
However, it is thought that Russians have not agreed the number of sites, nor that they are all under control.
'Important advance' The agreement says initial on-site inspections must be complete by November.
It also stipulates that production equipment be destroyed by November, with "complete elimination of all chemical weapons material and equipment in the first half of 2014".


THE FULL AGREEMENT
Mr Kerry outlined six points to the agreement:

1. The amount and type of chemical weapons must be agreed and "rapidly" placed under international control
2. Syria must submit within one week a comprehensive listing of its stockpiles
3. Extraordinary procedures under the Chemical Weapons Convention will allow "expeditious destruction"
4. Syria must give inspectors "immediate, unfettered access" to all sites
5. All chemical weapons must be destroyed, including the possibility of removing weapons from Syrian territory
6. UN will provide logistical support, and compliance would be enforced under Chapter VII

The White House -This is  "an important concrete step" towards putting Syria's chemical weapons under international control.
However, it warned that "if diplomacy fails, the United States remains prepared to act".
France and the UK both welcomed the agreement.
French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said it was an "important advance". France was the only country willing to join the US in taking military action in Syria.

President Bashar Assad said his government will start submitting data on its chemical weapons stockpile a month after signing the convention banning such weapons.

BEIRUT — Syrian President Bashar Assad publicly agreed Thursday to a Russian plan to secure and destroy his chemical weapons, but said the proposal would work only if the U.S. halts threats of military action.
Assad also said his government will start submitting data on its chemical weapons stockpile a month after signing the convention banning such weapons.
Syria’s U.N. ambassador Bashar Ja'afari told reporters Thursday that he presented Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon with ‘‘the instrument of accession’’ to the Chemical Weapons Convention making his country a full member of the treaty banning the use of chemical weapons.
The treaty states that a nation becomes a party 30 days after such a letter is submitted.

U.N. associate spokesman Farhan Haq said the secretary-general welcomes the development.

‘‘Given recent events, he hopes that the current talks in Geneva will lead to speedy agreement on a way forward which will be endorsed and assisted by the international community,’’ Haq said.
But American officials, meeting with their Russian counterparts in Geneva, insisted on a speedier Syrian accounting of their stockpiles.
Assad’s remarks to Russia’s state Rossiya 24 news channel were his first since the Russian plan was announced Monday as a way to avert a potential U.S. military strike in response to the Aug. 21 chemical weapons attack that killed hundreds near Damascus.
He said that Syria is relinquishing control over its chemical weapons because of Russia.
‘‘We agreed to put Syria’s chemical weapons under international supervision in response to Russia’s request and not because of American threats,’’ Assad said.
‘‘In my view, the agreement will begin to take effect a month after its signing, and Syria will begin turning over to international organizations data about its chemical weapons,’’ Assad added. He said this is ‘‘standard procedure’’ and that Syria will stick to it.
‘‘There is nothing standard about this process,’’ U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry retorted in Geneva, because Assad has used his chemical weapons. ‘‘The words of the Syrian regime in our judgment are simply not enough.’’
Syria had long rejected joining the Chemical Weapons Convention, which requires all parties to the treaty to declare and destroy whatever chemical weapons they may possess.
Assad said the Russian deal was a two-sided process. ‘‘We are counting, first of all, on the United States stop conducting the policy of threats regarding Syria,’’ he said.
Syria’s Deputy Prime Minister Qadri Jamil also suggested on Thursday that the Russian proposal will succeed only if the United States and its allies pledge not to attack Syria in the future.
‘‘We want a pledge that neither it (the U.S.) nor anyone else will launch an aggression against Syria,’’ Jamil told The Associated Press in Damascus.
But Kerry cautioned that a U.S. military strike could occur if Assad doesn’t agree to dismantle his chemical arsenal properly. ‘‘There ought to be consequences if it doesn’t take place,’’ he said.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, however, said the dismantling ‘‘will make unnecessary any strike against the Syrian Arab Republic.’’
Syria’s top rebel commander, meanwhile, slammed the Russian proposal, calling for Assad to be put on trial for allegedly ordering the Aug. 21 attack. Many rebels had held out hopes that U.S.-led punitive strikes on Assad’s forces would help tip the scales in their favor in Syria’s civil war, which has claimed over 100,000 lives so far.
Gen. Salim Idris’ statement was broadcast on pan-Arab satellite channels hours before talks in Geneva between Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
‘‘We call upon the international community, not only to withdraw the chemical weapons that were the tool of the crime, but to hold accountable those who committed the crime in front of the International Criminal Court,’’ Idris said.
He added that the Free Syrian Army ‘‘categorically rejects the Russian initiative’’ as falling short of the expectations of rebel fighters.
The U.S. accuses Assad’s government of being behind the attack in the suburb of Ghouta. The U.S. says the attack killed 1,429 people; other estimates of the deaths are lower.
Assad has denied responsibility and accuses U.S. officials of spreading lies without providing evidence.
In the interview Thursday, he charged that the Aug. 21 chemical weapons attack was a ‘‘U.S.-organized provocation.’’
‘‘The threats (of a military strike) are based on a provocation. It was arranged with the use of chemical weapons in the Damascus suburb of Ghouta,’’ he said.
In Geneva, Kerry and a team of U.S. experts will have at least two days of meetings with their Russian counterparts. The Americans hope to emerge with an outline of how some 1,000 tons of chemical weapons stocks and precursor materials as well as potential delivery systems can be safely inventoried and isolated under international control in an active war zone and then destroyed.
In Washington, officials said the CIA has been delivering light machine guns and other small arms to Syrian rebels for several weeks, following President Barack Obama’s decision to arm the rebels.
The agency also has arranged for the Syrian opposition to receive anti-tank weapons like rocket-propelled grenades through a third party, presumably one of the Gulf countries that has been arming the rebels, a senior U.S. intelligence official and two former intelligence officials said Thursday. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the classified program publicly.
Loay al-Mikdad, a Free Syrian Army spokesman, told the AP that they have not received any weapons from the U.S. although they expect some in the near future.
Meanwhile, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said rebels fighting Assad’s forces on Thursday captured the village of Imm al-Lokas in the southern region of Quneitra near Syria’s Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
The Britain-based activist group added that rebels also captured several army posts in the area in heavy fighting that caused casualties on both sides.
It also said that in the northeastern province of Hassakeh, clashes pitting Kurdish fighters against members of the al-Qaida-linked Nusra Front and the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant in the past two days killed 13 Kurdish gunmen and 35 militants.
The two sides have been fighting in northern Syria for months in battles that left scores of people dead on both sides.
Syrian state media said government troops advanced in the predominantly Christian village of Maaloula near Damascus, capturing the main square as well as the Mar Takla convent where several nuns were staying.
A resident in the village told the AP that troops were trying to capture a rebel-held hotel on a hill overlooking the area. The man, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals, said most of the fighting Thursday was taking place in the western part of the village.
Government troops are trying to flush out rebel units, including two linked to al-Qaida, from the hilltop enclave the rebels broke into last week.
Most of the village’s 3,300 residents have fled to safer parts of the country, although some have remained, hunkering down in their homes, activists said.
Maaloula, about 60 kilometers (40 miles) northeast of Damascus, had until recently been firmly in the regime’s grip despite being surrounded by rebel-held territory. The village was a major tourist attraction before the civil war. Some of its residents still speak a version of Aramaic, a biblical language believed to have been used by Jesus.

His Excellency Vladimir Putin with Generals of the Russian Federation

Putin  warn US against Syria strike, says- A potential US strike on Syria is fraught with dangerous consequences- Putin said the gas “was used not by the Syrian Army, but by opposition forces, to provoke intervention by their powerful foreign patrons, who would be siding with the fundamentalists.”

Putin said the gas “was used not by the Syrian Army, but by opposition forces, to provoke intervention by their powerful foreign patrons, who would be siding with the fundamentalists.”

A potential US strike on Syria is fraught with dangerous consequences, Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned in an op-ed he wrote for the New York Times.

Washington is currently contemplating a strike on Syria as retaliation for a deadly August 21 chemical weapons attack in a Damascus suburb, which it has attributed to the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad. Official Damascus has blamed the attack on rebel forces, and Russia has tentatively backed its long-time ally, while calling for further investigation.

"Recent events surrounding Syria have prompted me to speak directly to the American people and their political leaders. It is important to do so at a time of insufficient communication between our societies," Putin said in the op-ed, entitled "A Plea for Caution from Russia," which was posted on the US newspaper's website Wednesday.

“The potential strike by the United States against Syria, despite strong opposition from many countries and major political and religious leaders, including the pope, will result in more innocent victims and escalation, potentially spreading the conflict far beyond Syria’s borders,” he said.

“A strike would increase violence and unleash a new wave of terrorism. It could undermine multilateral efforts to resolve the Iranian nuclear problem and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and further destabilize the Middle East and North Africa,” Putin wrote.

“It could throw the entire system of international law and order out of balance,” he said in the article.

The unrest in Syria began in March 2011 and later escalated into a civil war. More than 100,000 people have been killed in the conflict so far, according to UN estimates.

Putin reiterated Russia’s position that the Syrian civil war should be resolved by peaceful means.

“From the outset, Russia has advocated peaceful dialogue enabling Syrians to develop a compromise plan for their own future. We are not protecting the Syrian government, but international law,” he wrote.

“We need to use the United Nations Security Council and believe that preserving law and order in today’s complex and turbulent world is one of the few ways to keep international relations from sliding into chaos,” Putin said in his op-ed in the New York Times.

He underlined that the current international law only permits use of force “in self-defense or by the decision of the Security Council,” adding that all other ways are “unacceptable under the United Nations Charter and would constitute an act of aggression.”

Noting that “no one doubts that poison gas was used in Syria,” Putin said the gas “was used not by the Syrian Army, but by opposition forces, to provoke intervention by their powerful foreign patrons, who would be siding with the fundamentalists.”

Syria’s foreign minister, Walid Muallem, said Tuesday his country was ready to give up chemical weapons and join an international convention banning them.

US Secretary of State John Kerry meets Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Geneva on Thursday for hastily organized talks on a Russian plan to prevent a US attack on Syria by placing the war-torn country’s chemical weapons under international control.

Speaking on the Al-Mayadeen pan-Arabic satellite television channel, Russia’s ambassador to Lebanon, Alexander Zasypkin, said Moscow had handed over to the UN Security Council evidence that chemical weapons in Syria were used by rebel forces.

The Russian president voiced concern that “military intervention in internal conflicts in foreign countries has become commonplace for the United States.”

He expressed doubt that it could be in the United States’ long-term interest and added that many people worldwide “increasingly see America not as a model of democracy but as relying solely on brute force.”

Noting that his working and personal relationship with US President Barack Obama was “marked by growing trust,” Putin said: “I welcome the president’s interest in continuing the dialogue with Russia on Syria.”

The Russian leader said he and Obama “must work together to keep this hope alive.”

“If we can avoid force against Syria, this will improve the atmosphere in international affairs and strengthen mutual trust. It will be our shared success and open the door to cooperation on other critical issues,” Putin wrote in the article.
