Washington froze military-technical assistance to the armed opposition of Syria

35
Today news agency Reuters Citing sources in the Syrian armed opposition, reports that the United States suspended the implementation of military-technical assistance to these so-called oppositionists. The source of the news agency reports that the "opposition" was never given an explanation as to why the provision of military assistance was frozen indefinitely.

Washington froze military-technical assistance to the armed opposition of Syria


Meanwhile Reuters reports that the decision was made by Washington, probably due to the fact that last month the terrorists attacked the positions of the armed opposition in northern Syria and seized weapons, ammunition and materiel. Representatives of the US intelligence community "suspect" that individual members of the Syrian armed opposition have contacts with terrorists from ISIS and Dzhebhat-en-Nusra (* both of these groups are banned in the Russian Federation).

Apparently, earlier - when out of several hundreds of armed “oppositionists” trained in Turkey, 99% of their composition switched to the side of ISIL (*), along with weapons and ammunition - the US intelligence community did not suspect ... Or, the US intelligence community prepared armed people for their subsequent transition to the side of the terrorists, and now trying to play back?

It should be noted that after the freezing of military aid from Washington, the armed opposition will not remain without supplies. Such countries as, for example, Turkey and Qatar are not ready to refuse military assistance.

        In this regard, today's cargo with something directed by someone for the spirits of the Islamic State from Tel Afar (a key point for the blockade of Mosul) is interesting.

          Honestly, do not consider the platform for airborne cargo, we can also say that this is a paratrooper. Although if this is a load, then most likely the JPADS (Joint Precision Airdrop System)
          Well, who can have such special landing platforms? Yes, anyone, even the CIA, even the Pentagon, even friends from CA or Qatar

            The good news is that only US can print money.
            CA and Qatar, thank God they cannot and will surrender faster without American help.

    and now trying to win back?

    So ISIS was created to the liking of Iran ... and then suddenly the shooting of spirits began, and Iran is also not sitting on the sidelines, and the Turks all replayed back ... and, as luck would have it, Trump came to power. In general, hawks did not have a year.
    But the question is: Have you frozen it?

                I look forward to when the new Russians, without looking at Minsky, the EU will begin to smash this APU-shny rabble and kick him to the Polish border. Although, God forbid, beat Kharkov and Odessa ...

                  Without the political and naturally material will of Russia, it is unlikely. What is now the status quo. If they wanted to grab Donbas, they would already grab it. I think we are talking about the whole of Ukraine.

    I think the matter is in recent articles on cooperation between the Russian Federation and the Taliban in Afghanistan. Ours simply showed the Americans their methods on them. We look forward to bidding, especially since the White House recently spoke about the deal again.
