Russian President Vladimir Putin
has pledged to push ahead with its support for the Syrian government
and nation amid ongoing battle between Damascus and the Takfiri ISIL
terrorists.
“Our
policy of supporting Syria, its leadership and its people remains
unchanged,” Putin said Monday in a meeting with visiting Syrian Foreign
Minister Walid al-Moallem.
Putin
also said he was assured that the "Syrian people will win in the final
run,” noting that "success is always compounded with some problems and
military mishaps.”
He said the current crisis in Syria stems from "the aggression by the forces of international terrorism.”
Also
on Monday, the Syrian foreign minister met with his Russian counterpart
Sergei Lavrov and discussed the recent developments in the Arab
country.
In
the meeting, Lavrov said Moscow will continue to support Syria in the
fight against terrorism, adding that Russia has provided “all possible
assistance to increase [Syria’s] ability to resist the evil" and would
"continue doing this.”
Moallem
lashed out at the United States for overtly supporting the terrorists
fighting against the Syrian government, saying Washington has allocated
USD 1 billion to support terrorists operating in Syria.
"The
Americans are making no secret of their support for terrorists,” he
said, adding that Damascus is facing “double standards,” from the side
of the US as it keeps demanding a political solution but at the same
time financially backs the terrorists.
Moallem
said that 2,100 militants, armed with most sophisticated weapons, were
recently deployed in Syria's south, adding that those backing the
terrorists in Syria are hampering efforts aimed at reaching a
settlement.
