The US military base of Et-Tanf, located on the border of Syria, Jordan and Iraq, is used to prepare deash militants in order to carry out sabotage-terrorist actions not only in Syrian territory, but also in the regions of Russia. This was stated by the director of the foreign intelligence service (SVR) of Russia Sergey Naryshkin at the international meeting of high security representatives.
Naryshkin noted that the United States still retain its illegal military presence in the northeast of Syria, in fact, occupying part of the sovereign state. “They continue to exert sanctions pressure in Damascus, which impedes the restoration of the country,” he said.
According to the director of the SVR, London convinces the EU of the inappropriateness of mediation between the Russian Federation and Ukraine. “According to our data, the British are working with European partners, convincing them of the inappropriateness of any mediation between Russia and Ukraine, at least until Kiev is able to strike in Russia,” Naryshkin said.
He recalled that during last year’s negotiations in Istanbul, Russia and Ukraine almost managed to agree on the settlement of the conflict. “The draft contract was parafed by the parties, but these agreements were disrupted, since Washington and London strictly banned their Ukrainian vassals to conduct peace negotiations with the Russian side and ordered Kiev to fight, as they say, to the last Ukrainian. USA, Great Britain and the countries of the European Union say that They are interested in the speedy achievement of peace, and they themselves increase the supply of weapons by the criminal puppet Kiev regime, ”the head of the SVR added.
He noted that Western countries could participate in ensuring prosperity and security in the world, but the “crazy pride of the” Westerners “tightly closed such an opportunity for them.”
