Ernest: Russian strategy in Syria cannot be called successful

59
The White House believes that Moscow’s strategy in the fight against terrorism in Syria is not successful, said US administration spokesman Josh Ernest on Thursday.



"The strategy of Russia (in Syria) is not successful now in terms of fighting the" Islamic state, since most of its military operations take place in areas where there are very few IG forces, if they exist at all, "Ernest quotes RIA News. In his opinion, Moscow is simply “flexing its muscles.”

Earlier, the deputy head of the Syrian Foreign Ministry Mikdad said that "airstrikes of the Air and Space Forces of the Russian Federation in Syria in a few days caused more serious damage to terrorist groups than the actions of an international coalition led by the United States for a year." At the same time, he noted that Russia had begun to apply air strikes after it was convinced that “The actions of the so-called coalition formed by the United States are aimed at providing technical support to the terrorists, supporting them and extending their tenure (in Syria)”.

          Of course not. ISIS flees, the Syrian army is advancing, and there are no profits. Salvage to Russian accounts does not fall for the help of Syria. US loot lost. Where is the success laughing

        It’s high time to understand that no matter what we do in Syria, we will still be subjected to American attacks. The United States does not tolerate when someone dares to invade matters, where they assign themselves a dominant role, and even more so show that all their attempts in this matter are not so significant. So we are waiting for the next horror stories about the strengthening of sanctions and isolation of Russia.

          In the 17th century, the annexation of the territory of America by the Anglo-Saxons and French occurred with the destruction of the indigenous population of America by the Indians. So is it not time to repent and return everything to the native Indians of America to the Indians and not poke their nose where you are not willing to see and hear.

    Of course, someone doubted, because a successful strategy is when bombs fall on the regular army of Syria, and the militants receive money, weapons and instructors from these "fighters for democratic values". We have already gone through this.

    How much more dirt there will be from these corrupt creatures. We see how effective the work of the Russian, Iraqi and Syrian military together is. ... We are eliminating the terrorist threat to our country at distant approaches. Every ISIS killed in Syria is an ISIS who did not come to fight in Russia. Apparently, after the defeat of ISIS, it will be impossible to force EU residents to accept the millions of refugees resulting from US actions. By eliminating ISIS in Syria and Iraq, we will cut off the supply of smuggled oil to world markets, which is sold at dumping prices. And these are just a few of the reasons for this "Anxiety".
