Once you were enemies and Allah reconciled your hearts and made you brothers,” said the President of the Russian Federation.

Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani also responded to a question about drone strikes, claiming the right of Yemeni people to self-defense. “As for the second question, attack drones, here started talking about how it will affect the oil market.

What makes the people of Yemen, they protect themselves. And protect from attack,” he assured Rouhani.

Perhaps what we are seeing in the process, maybe it will be a model for Yemen. The countries of the region to try to bring peace and stability to Yemen. When the safety will return to Yemen, and then the oil in the region can produce,” explained Rouhani.

What can developed countries for Yemen, Syria? In Palestine is also a disaster, but now the Muslims are warring against the Muslims. Remember who first started to bomb Yemen? And we’ll see where it started,” said Erdogan.

The leaders of Russia and Iran also expressed dissatisfaction with Washington’s policies in Syria. Putin has announced that US troops are on the ground in this middle East state is illegal. “It is well known,” added the master of the Kremlin for greater credibility.

“We proceed from the fact that the decision of the President of the United States trump the decision on the withdrawal of American troops from Syria will be implemented to the end”, – said Vladimir Putin.
