President Putin “regards the strikes as aggression against a sovereign nation,” his spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, noting that the president believes the strikes were carried out “in violation of international law, and also under an invented pretext.”
Peskov also insisted that “the Syrian army doesn’t have chemical weapons,” saying this had been “observed and confirmed by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, a special UN unit.”
Putin sees the US missile strike on Syria as an attempt to distract attention from civilian casualties in Iraq, Peskov added.
“This step deals significant damage to US-Russian ties, which are already in a deplorable state,” Peskov said.
I find it interesting how Assad always resorts to using chemical weapons just when he’s thoroughly crushing the rebels. Anyone else find that interesting?
kwanza Trump hangewaambia , angelipua hao ma russians walikuwa hapo pia . CIA always confirms this things before the strikes . na musiniambie juu ya Iraq na WMD .
Nchi hizi zapigania raslimali kama nilivyodokeza kwenye uzi kama huu hapo awali . Urusi huuza gesi yake kule Uropa hivyo basi inakuwa vigumu kuangamizwa ki uchumi.
