Russia reacted sharply to a US strike on Assad troops in Syria

Moscow insists that the Syrian army did not threaten the opposition.

Russia considers the impact of the international coalition led by the United States against the troops of Bashar al-Assad in Syria the “illegitimate, illegal and violate the country’s sovereignty.”

This was stated by Russian foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

“Whatever the reason for the decisions that the U.S. command has taken to such an attack, it is illegitimate, it is illegal and yet another gross violation of the sovereignty of the Syrian Arab Republic”, – said the Minister.

Lavrov denies that Syrian troops carried the threat of the opposition that cooperates with the us military from the coalition.

18 may it was reported that the international coalition led by the US launched air strikes on the convoy of Assad’s forces near near the border with Jordan.

According to Reuters, the strike was in response to the advance of the Assad supporters on the US-backed opposition forces.
