Amid US threats to strike Syria, Putin hopes ‘common sense will finally prevail’

MOSCOW — Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday says he hoped that common sense will prevail in global affairs as the US threatens to send missiles into Syria.

“The state of the world cannot but provoke concern. The situation in the world is becoming more and more chaotic but all the same we hope that common sense will finally prevail and international relations will take a constructive path,” Putin says as new ambassadors present him with their credentials at the Kremlin.
