俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京对叙利亚叛军发出直接警告，称其行为违背了欧洲追求的人道主义价值观。英国首相戴维·卡梅隆说，英国将继续与希望建立民主叙利亚的反对派军队一同努力，两人是在伦敦唐宁街会谈后发表此番言论的。詹姆斯·罗宾斯报道。

President Putin and David Cameron exchanged thin smiles and a handshake at the door of number 10. Their differences over Syria could hardly be more profound, backing, opposing sides with Russia arming President Assad's government, and now Britain, France and United States edging towards arming the opposition rebels. After almost an hour and a half of talks, David Cameron stressed the need to search for some common ground and launch peace negotiations. But President Putin recalled video pictures apparently showing the rebel atrocity and asked if it would be right to support people who ate the organs of their victims.

In the last couple of hours, I've seen tear gas deployed by the police, presided in different locations around the city. All of them in areas within the vicinity of an immediately act on Taksim Square because what seem to happen is, the police have regained total control of Taksim Square and neighbouring Gezi Park. But it means the demonstrations had been pushed into various locations in the surrounding areas. These protesters had said they want to re-occupy Taksim Square, I don't think they are going to do that because the police have really taken that over from them again.
