France calls on Syrian allies to enforce cease fire

France called on Iran and Russian to ensure that a UN-backed ceasefire in Ghouta would be implemented. "Armed groups in eastern Ghouta have pledged to the UN Security Council to abide by resolution 2401 and accept the truce. Bashar al-Assad's regime, on the other hand, did not engage in this direction. Security Council resolutions, however, also bind him," said foreign ministry official Der Muhll.
