Ukip's Nigel Farage has claimed it was "more than likely" that Syrian rebels, not pro-Assad forces, were responsible for chemical attacks. He made the comments ahead of his second Euope debate with Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg, which polls said he won.
In an interview with BBC News, Ukip leader Nigel Farage said it was "more than likely" that it was Syrian rebels, not pro-Assad forces, responsible for chemical attacks in the country.
Asked about comments he made recently in support of Russian president Vladimir Putin, Mr Farage said:
United Nations human rights investigators said that evidence suggested that those responsible for March 2013 attacks in Damascus "likely had access to the chemicals weapons stockpile of the Syrian military."
