Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told journalists travelling with him on a flight to Moscow from a EU-Russia summit in Brussels on Saturday he believed Western powers had no desire to intervene in the Syrian conflict.

“I have a feeling that no one has any appetite for external intervention,” Lavrov was quoted as saying by the ITAR-TASS news agency.

“I even have the feeling that they are praying for Russia and China to continue blocking permission for external intervention. Because if there is such a decision, they will have to act, and no one is ready to act,” he said.
