Russian President
25, April 2015, Moscow -- In an exclusive interview with the German weekly Der Spiegel, the Russian president Vladimir Putin lashed out at Obama administration's Middle-East policy, accusing Washington to connive at its allies' despicable acts of terrorism in the troubled Middle-East region. The Russian defiant leader did, however, allude to Saudi Arabia – U.S. closest Arab ally, notorious for its terrible records of human rights violations–criticizing the oil-rich Arab monarchy of spreading terrorism through Russia's Muslim-majority republics in Caucasia.
"We are well aware that they [Saudis] are providing ISIS mercenaries with money and weapons and we are also cognizant of the fact that they are targeting Russia's security, stability and national integrity," said Russia's 63-year old president, adding that Syria is the last bastion of genuine democracy in the volatile Middle-East region where Saudi-backed Jihadists wreak havoc for nearly four years.
I believe the White House has acquiesced to Saudis' incessant demands, said President Putin, to carve an autonomous Sunni fiefdom in western Iraq which in turn might unleash a full-scale regional war and worldwide terrorism reaching new levels of destructiveness.
" … it seems reasonable to assume that Washington and its Saudi allies are seething with anger as the Iraqi army and local forces managed to liberate flashpoint city of Tikrit and they are continuing their advance to unshackle Mousl—Iraq's second biggest city," President Putin made the remarks on Thursday amid growing tension with U.S. is looming.
In the meantime, the Russian astute foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov lambasted Turkish pernicious interference in the war-torn Syria urging the AKP-led government to desist immediately from backing Al Qaeda-affiliated guerillas in Syria.
