In Moscow say about the latest blow to Russian-American relations.
Rocket attack on US airbase in Syria is an aggression that harms Russian-American relations and the fight against terrorism. This opinion of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin has sounded its press-Secretary Dmitry Peskov.
“President Putin says U.S. strikes on Syria an aggression against a sovereign state, in violation of international law, and under the false pretext,” – said Peskov.
He noted that “the Syrian army has chemical weapons stockpiles”.
“The fact of the destruction of all stockpiles of chemical weapons from the Syrian armed forces were otfiksirovat and confirmed by the OPCW is a specialized unit of the United Nations,” reminded Sands.
“At the same time, according to Putin, the complete disregard for the facts of use of chemical weapons by terrorists only exacerbates the situation significantly,” – said Peskov.
Also, according to Putin that an attack on an air base in Syria is detrimental to the relations between Russia and the U.S., Peskov said.
“This move by Washington to cause considerable damage to Russian-American relations, which is in a deplorable state,” – said the spokesman.
“And most importantly, according to Putin, this step brings us closer to the ultimate goal in the fight against international terrorism, but on the contrary creates a serious obstacle to the creation of the international coalition to counter it and effectively combating this global evil, which, by the way, the US President, Donald trump declared as one of the main tasks during his election campaign,” concluded Sands.
As previously reported, the President of the United States Donald trump gave the order to attack the airfield of the Syrian air force, where, according to him, a few days ago an attack occurred with the use of chemical weapons against civilians in Idlib province.
