After the missile strikes by the US, France and Britain on Syria, Russia's president, Vladimir Putin, condemned the attacks and warned that any more would bring chaos to world affairs.

David Aaronovitch is joined by:

Gabriel Gatehouse - BBC Correspondent

Alexander Baunov - senior fellow at the Carnegie Moscow Center

Neil Buckley - Financial Times Eastern Europe editor and former Moscow bureau chief

Sir Lawrence Freedman - Emeritus Professor of War Studies at Kings College

Professor Angela Stent - Georgetown University and a former US State Department official.
