Ukraine expresses solidarity with the United States, Great Britain and France and supports the actions of the Allies in response to Damascus's use of chemical weapons in the Syrian city of Douma, which led to numerous civilian casualties, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

"Attention is also focused on the purposeful support of the crimes of Damascus by the Kremlin regime, which by its actions, including in the UN Security Council, consistently makes it impossible to resolve the conflict in Syria in accordance with the UN Charter," the statement says.

Ukraine reiterates its firm stance that the use of chemical weapons by anyone, anywhere and under any circumstances, is a gross violation of international law, and those responsible for such actions must be held accountable.
