Russia's Vladimir Putin challenges US on Syria claims
31 August 2013 Last updated at 11:21 GMT Help
Russian President Vladimir Putin has challenged the US to present to the UN evidence that Syria was responsible for chemical weapons attacks.
Mr Putin said it would be "utter rubbish" for Syria's government to provoke opponents with such attacks when it was in a position of strength.
US President Barack Obama has said he is considering military action against Syria based on intelligence reports.

Watch the video, he is asking the US to show the rest of the UN the evidence. I mean, how could you ask people to join a war if you don't show evidence?
Australia and France are behind the US regardless.
