Russia has information that attacks using chemical weapons can also be prepared in other areas of Syria. As Interfax reports, said Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“We have information from various sources that such provocations, but I can’t name it in a different way, are prepared in other regions of Syria, including in the southern suburbs of Damascus, where they are going to throw some kind of substance again and accuse the Syrian official authorities of applying it,” Putin said at a press conference with Italy President Sergio Mattarella.
He also stated that the situation with Himatak in Syria resembles the events of 2003, when the United States showed chemical weapons found in Iraq.
“We discussed this with Mr. President, and I said that it strongly reminds me of the events of 2003, when representatives of the United States in the Security Council showed supposedly a chemical weapon found in Iraq. After that, the campaign began in Iraq, a military man, and it ended in the destruction of the country, an increase in the terrorist threat and the appearance of the IG on the international stage, ”Putin said.
