The defense Ministry called the statement of the US refugees on the camp Rukban in Syria as absurd
The Department of Defense called the absurd a statement by the United States about the refusal to provide food and basic necessities to refugees from the territory of the Rukban camp located in the American-controlled territory. This was stated by the head of the National Center for Defense Management of Russia, Colonel-General Mikhail Mizintsev.
Earlier, US Special Representative for Syria, James Jeffrey said. that the US will not take care of refugees from the Rukban camp, which is under the control of American forces. According to him, many of the refugees would like to return to their homes located in the territory controlled by Assad, but they need "assistance in transportation." The United States "will seek the provision of humanitarian aid from Syria and Russia for them," while they themselves will not feed them, because this may indicate that the United States intends to stay there forever. "
- declared the little fingers.
He recalled that it was the illegal presence of the American army in Syria and is the main cause of the plight of refugees. He called on the United States to dismantle the camps in the territory under their control and to stop holding the refugees there by force.
According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, a difficult humanitarian situation is developing in the Rukban and El Khol refugee camps. The United States, despite numerous promises, is doing nothing to improve life in the camps, where a large percentage of families of terrorist groups fighting against Damascus, as well as representatives of the Islamic State banned in Russia, live. The prevailing social and criminal situation leads to the radicalization of the inhabitants and the spread of the ideology of the IG.
Between there, today, thanks to the actions of Russia and Syria, more than 17 thousands of Syrian citizens, who were forcibly detained in Rukban camp, located in the US-occupied 55-kilometer zone of Al-Tanf, were able to get out, the Defense Ministry said.

The position of the American leadership, voiced by (...) blamed for the plight of the Syrians in Rukban on Russia and Syria, looks absurd. (...) cynically declares that (...) they do not intend to provide its (Rukban) residents with food and basic necessities, as this would delay the stay of the American troops in the Al-Tanf zone for an indefinite period
