Wait for the answer

US Secretary of Defense Astton Carter said at his press conference at the NATO headquarters in Brussels: "I expect that in the coming days the Russians will begin to suffer losses in Syria." It is reported by RBC.

Carter also did not rule out that the attacks of Islamists will begin in Russia itself.

The head of the Pentagon reproached Moscow of that, instead of promoting the political resolution of the Syrian conflict, she "decided to double her support (Syrian dictator Bashar) Assad." “They said that they would fight with the“ Islamic state ”,“ Jabhat al -Nusra ”and other extremist groups, but began to strike in groups that they are not,” added Carter.

“Russia said one thing, but did another how it often does it,” the US Secretary of Defense said.

All this, Carter continued, will only lead to the fact that the Civil War in Syria will flare up even more. “We will not agree to cooperate with Russia until it continues to insist on this erroneous strategy,” the Pentagon head emphasized.

According to Gazeta.ru, Carter also stated: "We consider Russia's actions in Syria to be unprofessional: violation of the airspace of Turkey, which is NATO airspace, launching winged missiles that took place a few kilometers from the American drone."

The United States will still bomb Islamists and support a moderate opposition, assured the Minister of Defense of the country. At the same time, he promised that Washington would continue negotiations with Moscow to ensure the security of the coalition forces led by the United States, and that Russia will have the opportunity to join the search for a political resolution of the conflict.

Meanwhile, the Syrian Supervisory Board of Human Rights reports that on Thursday morning, Russian aircraft raided the Sahel-El-Gab valley in Muhafaz Hama, covering the ground offensive of the regular troops of Assad and the union militia on the united forces of secular opposition and Islamists. Despite support from the air, in the course of fierce battles near the village of Latmin and in other places north and northeast of Hama, 13 Assad supporters were killed and 15 units of their military equipment, including tanks and armored personnel carriers, were disabled. The loss of the opposition amounted to 11 people.
