WASHINGTON, April 14. /TASS/. Actions by the United States and its allies in Syria would entail consequences for which they would have to bear responsibility, Russia’s ambassador in Washington Anatoly Antonov said in a statement on Friday immediately after the first strikes on Syria.

Statement by the Ambassador Antonov on the strikes on #Syria : A pre-designed scenario is being implemented. Again, we are being threatened. We warned that such actions will not be left without consequences. All responsibility for them rests with Washington, London and Paris. pic.twitter.com/QEmWEffUzx

"The worst expectations have materialized. Our warnings fell on deaf ears. A pre-planned scenario is being acted on. We are being threatened again," he stated.

"We have warned that such actions will not remain without consequences. All responsibility for them rests upon Washington, London and Paris," he said.

Antonov stressed that "insulting the Russian president was inadmissible."

"The United States, a country that has the largest arsenal of chemical weapons, has no moral right to accuse other countries," he said.
