France said Monday it will propose a U.N. Security Council resolution demanding the immediate opening of humanitarian corridors to besieged Syrian cities.

Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said the resolution represented an attempt to accelerate moves aimed at delivering urgently-needed medical and food supplies.

"It is absolutely scandalous that we have been discussing this for some time but the people are still starving," Fabius said.

"That is why, along with other countries, we want to propose a resolution on these lines," he added.

Finally France finds something to do besides screw up the entire middle east with its' meddling.

France almost scuttled the Iran Nuclear talks. They bent over backwards to Israeli and KSA demands.

France, especially Hollande and Fabius, need to stop pretending they have any portfolios in the middle east.

And by the way those $3 billion in armas for Lebanon will NOT be delivered, The deal is scuttled.

Lebanon will get some uniforms and vehicles to cover this farse. Lebanon would have never received any air defense capability against Israel.

I sincerely Suggest that Naharnet filters most of what is published in the comments as to eliminate insults and non pertinent comments with no added value to true journalism
