The Ministry of Defense denied the UK in the right to condemn the situation in Syria

The Russian Ministry of Defense refused the British military department of accusing Russia of a situation of Syria, according to a statement by the representative of the Ministry of Defense Igor Konashenkov, which he sent to Slon Magazine.

“The British military minister, before embarking on manifest reasoning about the alleged responsibility of Russia for the situation in Syria and, in particular, in Aleppo, it is necessary to think about, but what is done by Great Britain in this unfortunate country?” - Konashenkov asked a question.

Then he cited the data according to which the result of Russia's actions is “a daily growing number (more than 1000) of liberated settlements, thousands of tons of humanitarian aid and square kilometers of the territory free of ISIS”.

“Where was the UK, when ISIS almost reached the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, almost turning Syria into a terrorist caliphate, as happened by your efforts in Libya. After all, you hosted Syria in the sky before the arrival of the Russian VKS, ”said the representative of the Ministry of Defense.

So Konashenkov answered the statement of the British Minister of Defense Michael Fallon that Russia needs to be held accountable for the situation in Aleppo, where, including hospitals, were under the bombardment. France on this occasion is about to submit to the UN International Court a demand to investigate the possible war crimes of Russia.

Russia, as reported by Reuters , after the breakdown of the ceasefire began to increase the presence in the Middle Eastern country. For example, the technical support point in Tartus is planned to be made by a permanent base. At the same time, attacks on civilians in Moscow are denied.
