Gerasimov on the planned reduction of the military group in Syria

42
Reducing the military presence in the Syrian Arab Republic can begin before the end of this year, reports RIA News report of the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov.




According to Gerasimov, this will happen “after the fulfillment of all tasks”.

There are very few
added on.

The general noted that the bases in Hmeimim and Tartus, the Center for the Reconciliation of the parties, as well as the structures necessary to maintain security, would remain.

When asked how significant the reduction of the Russian contingent would be, Gerasimov answered:

We will look at the situation, of course, significantly.


Recall VKS Russia began a military operation in Syria in 2015, at the official request of the President of the Republic of Bashar al-Assad. With Russian participation, more than 98 percent of the country's territory was freed from terrorists. On the eve of a meeting with the Syrian leader, Vladimir Putin said that the operation against the militants in the republic is nearing completion.

      Yes, but, it seems, some of the Su-24, from the presence of our group in Syria, Russia will donate to the Syrian Air Force and accelerate the supply of military equipment to the Syrian army. It would be logical for the various foreign sponsors of the terrorists not to want to try and reverse everything.

        there was no desire to try to reverse everything.

        For this, our military bases remain there! And to give weapons to those who, in case of danger, drop everything and flee - it makes no sense!

          It’s hard for a pilot to drop everything and run away. If he catapults without a reason, then at best he will get a concussion of his whole body, at worst he will be awaited on earth by grateful barmales. To hell with him throw a working plane?

      Yeah, we’ve done business with cunning planes and geopolitical geniuses, given, or rather even shoved, Russian Ukraine into a hostile media, economic and military space
      front and possible launch points in our native Chernigov and Kharkov.
      And now the potential front is closer "to Rostov, Belgorod and Kursk ..."
      But the compradors and ethnic mafia in power have become calmer - they once again divided and confused the Russians - you can rob and export them further.
      And to distract pseudo-patriots - “successes” in sacred Syria, this is not some kind of unnecessary Kerim, Dudaev (groundhog), Ottoman and other kobzons “Kievan Rus”

            There was such a national policy of the Bolsheviks when national minorities were used against the Great Russians, and the Cossacks were simply destroyed. Not only did the Russian Little Russians come up with the name Ukrainians, where they combined Austria-Hungary and Poland into one nation with the rulers. The main nonsense that destroyed the USSR is the creation of national republics. Even the RSFSR was mined by the national autonomous republics. For the integrity of the Russian Federation had to fight fiercely. Gorbi, EBN, Kravchuk and Shushkevich, as well as Dudaev, Shaimiev and Rakhimov, are a consequence of the state structure and politics of the Bolsheviks, and each of these personalities are true communists who made their careers green.

          - A patriot? Russian idea, Dostoevsky, power ... And where is your Motherland, son? Gorbachev surrendered your homeland to the Americans to hang out beautifully. And now your Homeland has blown two wars and Crimea. I handed over Russian people in the Baltic states, I handed over the Serbs in the Balkans ... Homeland ... Today, the Motherland is where the ass is warm and you know it better than me, and you came for that.

    With Russian participation, more than 98 percent of the country's territory was freed from terrorists.

    And closer to the election, what figure will be? 99 or 99.99?

        this could be discussed if it was a question of any one group, but all anti-Assad forces have been declared "terrorists".

          As I understand it, you don’t believe in the numbers, the wrong ones are declared terrorists and of course Assad is not legitimate. A familiar song, only it sounds constantly from those for whom Russia is an enemy.

            ... not those declared terrorists and of course Assad is not legitimate. A familiar song, only it sounds constantly from those for whom Russia is an enemy.

            I wrote that those who wrote these sucked-out figures, 98%, ignored the multiple groups that had previously been declared (and quite justified) by terrorists - a clear contradiction.
            Assad itself is legitimate (which does not mean my love for their clan). and deserves respect.
            Exaggerated triumphant reports cause ridicule and indignation at all - no matter who is on whose side.
            And those who write them are enemies of Russia, or out of stupidity pour water on the mill of enemies of Russia. The same applies (but with a large bias towards stupidity) to those who justify such informational lapses.

      And 72 — which tried to save 62 — but was also knocked out.


      HTSH and TIP - have already announced a large offensive in their resources. The only question is where. On the flanks of Hama or Hader (where the fighting also suddenly started - after almost 5 month-long lull).
