Kerry says Russia must stop Syria bombing campaign
 I'm sure the Rooshuns will get right on it, ASAP!The United States Secretary of State John Kerry told Russia that its bombing campaign in Syria is killing scores of women and children and "has to stop." "Russia has indicated to me very directly they are prepared to do a ceasefire," Kerry told reporters on Friday according to AFP. "The Iranians confirmed in London just a day and a half ago they will support a ceasefire now," he added. "We will have a much better sense in the next few days of how serious each party is," he added.
Russia gave heavy air support to Syria and its paramilitary allies in a major offensive into Aleppo which is seeing opposition forces in that city being cut off and put under immense pressure. Kerry has slammed the Russian campaign, saying their heavy reliance on "dumb bombs" over "precision bombs" has seen "women and children, being killed in large numbers as a consequence." Something which Mr. Kerry insists "has to stop." Posted by: badanov 2016-02-07 |
