Russia is the one supplying Assad with weapons. Russia is putting out this statement not because they want a non-interventionist policy in Syria, but becasue they want to be the only one intervening . They want their side to win.
Putin promotes the ideals of democracy several times. Meanwhile he is funding a dictator and going out of his way to defeat any chance of democracy in Syria.

And so what if they're supporting Syria with weapons? or are Middle Eastern countries not allowed to have weapons? weapons are usually bought just so you know.
It's not like the States doesn't have a long history of arming countries and rebels. Sometimes for free.
