Probably throw out some lie about the civilians in Berlin being effective hostages of the illegal military clique of counterrevolutionary running dog lackey junta puppet regime, or blame the chemical weapons use on NATO outright.
At this point they've bombed entire populations out of existence all through Manchuria, why should they care what the world thinks about a few hundred thousand more dead? Forty-five years prior they killed 30m of their own and the world didn't bat an eye. Blame it on NATO (one way or the other), win, write history any way they want.
