Russia says its arms deliveries to Syria aimed at fighting terrorism: RIA Novosti
2015-09-08
[EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] Russia has never concealed the fact that it has been supplying military equipment to Syria aimed at fighting terrorism, RIA Novosti news agency cited a foreign ministry spokeswoman as saying on Monday.
Assad defines all opponents as "terrorists."
To be fair, nowadays almost all of them are.
The agency, citing the ministry's spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, also reported that Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry in a phone conversation it is "premature" to speak about Russia's participation in military operations in Syria.

Putin wanting to make sure any possible "Syraq" style destabilization of Turkey by the ISIS/ISIL or Other never occurs???
