[Regnum] The Russian Presidential Administration has not seen any reports about the start of joint preparations by the United States and Ukraine to open a second front in Syria against Russia. This was stated at a briefing on September 18 by the press secretary of the head of state, Dmitry Peskov. "I have not seen such reports. I have no information on this issue, so I cannot say anything specific about it," the Kremlin spokesman said in response to a question on the matter. As reported by the Regnum news agency, on September 17, a source reported that Kiev is actively training terrorists from the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham group (a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation) in new drone production technologies. According to him, this work is being carried out in coordination with the United States in order to open a new front against the Russian army in Syria in the coming months. On September 10, the Turkish newspaper Aydinlik wrote that Ukraine, with the support of the United States, held talks with representatives of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham in Syria to involve militants in operations against Russia. It was noted that the delegation of the Kiev regime called on the terrorists to release radical Chechen and Georgian militants from prison, for which it promised the radicals 75 drones. Later that day, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said the Kiev regime was maintaining contacts with terrorists, using them to commit terrorist attacks against Russians. According to her, Kiev had already become a new international terrorist group, backed by the United States and Britain. |
