俄羅斯稱聯合國決議將把敘利亞推向內戰

Russia is warning that a Western and Arab effort to push the U.N. Security Council into adopting a resolution on Syria will put that nation on a path to civil war.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov said Tuesday the Western and Arab-backed draft resolution will not achieve a compromise in the 10-month long rebellion against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's 11-year autocratic rule.

Syrian opposition activists said government troops were consolidating control over eastern suburbs of Damascus Tuesday after several days of heavy fighting with rebels who briefly seized the communities just several kilometers from Mr. Assad's seat of power.

The activists said Monday's fighting between pro-Assad forces and the loosely-organized rebels in the Damascus suburbs and the central province of Homs killed about 100 people, many of them civilians. It was not possible to confirm the casualties independently because Syria bars foreign media from operating freely in the country.俄羅斯警告說，西方和阿拉伯國家欲推動聯合國安理會採取有關敘利亞問題的決議的努力，將把敘利亞推向內戰之路。

俄羅斯副外長加季洛夫星期二說，西方和阿拉伯國家支持的敘利亞決議不會達到讓雙方妥協的目標。爲推翻總統阿薩德11年獨裁統治，敘利亞人發動了長達10個月的反政府抗議。

敘利亞反對派活動人士說，政府軍星期二正在鞏固對大馬士革東郊地區的控制。此前，一連幾天，政府軍與一度控制這些社區的反政府人員進行了激烈的戰鬥，這些地區距離阿薩德的權力中樞僅幾公里。

活動人士說，親阿薩德的部隊與組織鬆散的反政府武裝星期一在大馬士革郊區以及中部省份霍姆斯的戰鬥導致大約100人死亡，其中大部分是平民。由於敘利亞禁止外國媒體在境內自由活動，上述傷亡數字無法得到獨立證實。
