Russian Ministry of Defense responded to the statement by the head of the Pentagon that James Mattis, that Syria's president with the support of Iran and Russia led his people to disaster. Thus Mzttis criticized the actions of Assad's government army, as well as Russian and Iranian videoconferencing units, stated, only the formation of the Syrian Kurdish Democratic Forces (SDS), supported by the United States could in a bitter struggle to win over the faction LIH banned in Russia.
The official representative of the Russian Defense Ministry, Major-General Igor Konashenkov, commenting on the statement Mattis, He stated, that it is a criminal inactivity of the United States and the coalition led by them, It led to the expansion of the terrorist group “Islamic State” (It banned in Russia) in Syria. It is thanks to the US fighters quickly gained control of the oil-bearing regions of Syria and the influx of huge sums of money from the sale of this oil. At the same time the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation recalled, that rise to LIH a hand in just the United States and is the unchallenged fact. The invasion of American troops in Iraq under the false pretext of the existence in Iraq of chemical weapons, and led to the creation of a terrorist organization.
Besides, Konashenkov recalled, that a significant part of the weapons, allegedly supplied US opposition in Syria, in the hands of the militants of banned terrorist groups in Russia “Dzhebhat en-Nusrat” and “Islamic State” because of, that all this time the US “poured” hundreds of millions of dollars in non-existent “Syrian opposition”. Weapons supplied the terrorist groups, that as the United States had intended to overthrow the legitimate Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Konashenkov also advised US Secretary of Defense carefully examine the card to make sure Syria, that all pockets of resistance terrorist groups are located in areas, controlled by the United States and “international” coalition.
Wherein, We noted in the Ministry of Defense, US has not invested in the dollar and the restoration of damaged areas of Syria, freed from militants and in the territory, controlled by the legitimate government. Apparently it had no money…
