Russia Foreign Minister Deciphers The Latest Syrian War In An Interview

Russia's Sergey Lavrov in the latest interview on 07 December 2024 says, "It’s inadmissible to allow the terrorist groups to take control of the lands in violation of agreements which exist starting with the UN Security Council Resolution 2254 which strongly reiterated the sovereignty, territorial integrity and unity of the Syrian Arab Republic, which condemned any attempts by terrorists to disturb the life of Syrians, and which called for the direct dialogue between the government and the opposition. And the opposition groups listed in that Resolution".

"If we speak about Hayat Tahrir al-Sham specifically, in 2018 and 2020 in the framework of the Astana format two agreements were signed clearly solidifying the common resolve not to allow Hayat Tahrir al-Sham to rule in Idlib to be thrown out of Idlib. And this agreements have not been implemented. And now they are grossly violated", Lavrov added.
