Assad promised to continue the offensive in the provinces of Idlib and Aleppo

Syrian government forces will continue the offensive with the goal of freeing the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib from terrorists. This was stated by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in an address to the Syrian people.

According to the Syrian leader, the liberation of the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib from terrorists of all stripes will continue, despite external pressure, especially Turkish.



We are fully aware that this liberation does not mean the end of the war or the destruction of terrorism. Success in Aleppo and Idlib is a prelude to the complete defeat of extremists, which will come sooner or later

- said Assad

The President of Syria addressed the residents of Aleppo, thanking them for their resilience in the conditions of "severe blockade" and expressed hope that the city will be restored from the ruins that it turned into during the war.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said he wants to "put an end to Russia's support for the atrocities of the Assad regime." He spoke about this in a telephone conversation with the Turkish leader Erdogan, held on February 15.

Trump thanked Erdogan for "preventing a humanitarian catastrophe" in the province of Idlib and expressed hope that Russia would cease to support the "Assad regime" and move from military operations to a "political settlement."

As previously reported, the United States refused to participate in the ground conflict in the Idlib province on the side of Turkey, but said they would assist in obtaining intelligence and supplying Turkish troops.

        I wonder how, in your opinion, such an agreement should look like? "Can I say his to the people that we will continue to free our the country from terrorists? "- so, or what?
        In fact, he is the legal leader of an independent state. Although it depends on our videoconferencing, they are entitled to make such statements. Without agreeing with anyone.

            Now the time has come when it is possible to decide by force - whose Idlib will be after the defeat of the remnants of the Islamic State and others on its territory - Syrian or Turkish. But what consequences this Victory will have is a very unpleasant question, although answering it for Assad is probably better in the rank of the Winner who took Idlib.

              And it is right! The winners also have to answer, not infrequently, but their support is completely different, real, in contrast to the drowning, vacillating and, especially, retreating, losing their positions!
              He needs a little \ enough help! This is already our task, at all levels.

            So are you talking about words or deeds? You already decide somehow, otherwise in the first post you just didn’t like the statement, and then for some reason you remembered about matters. That Assad does not shine without the support of the videoconferencing, there is no reason to doubt it somehow.

              It is strange that no one has yet said that Assad SAM made a decision and uses our videoconferencing system without warning Putin or Shoigu about this. wassat That's how I imagine - Putin is sitting with Erdogan and, drooping his head, says to him: "Well, I can’t do anything with this Assad! Forgive me, dear friend of Erdogash ... let's talk about tomatoes ..."

          Do not forget that in 2015 he was actually the head of the city of Damascus. Only thanks to Russia did he remain the head of state, which today returned significant territories. Therefore, the statement to continue the liberation of the provinces of Aleppo and Idlib has been unambiguously agreed with the Russian Federation. Because without the support of the Russian Armed Forces, Assad Erdogan cannot be overcome.

      Do you need to agree on this? He never hid that his goal was to free his country from terrorists and invaders who had crawled there. And because the "Obama regime" or "Trump regime" call it "Assad regime" - black does not turn white (I do not mean Obama). The Americans, Turks and other Frenchmen cannot intelligibly explain even to themselves what they are doing there, Israel is just a jackal, having squandered the Golan. And to rejoice at the presence of "American liberators" is not for the Syrians. This is for the Germans and the Japanese (occupied countries), or Poland-Ukraine-Romania - these themselves only see themselves in the role of world slaves.
