Assad says Turkish President ‘lost his nerve’
Obama said it was possible over the coming months that Russian Federation would undergo a “shift in calculations” and back away from its support for Assad.
“We must not rule anything out”, Valls said.
So it’s fantastic that the US President Obama can continue to parrot this nonsense that this US-led coalition is supposedly fighting ISIS (Daesh).
He said terrorism can not be destroyed from the air, this is nearly impossible.
Syrian president Bashar al-Assad has warned terrorists could be among the refugees making their way to Europe.
In the wake of Turkey’s downing of the Russian warplane last week, regional tension may escalate dragging Turkey and Russia into an all-out war.
However instability in Syria happened, it worked toward US goals.
“With Afghanistan fresh in the memory, for him [Putin] to simply get bogged down in an inconclusive and paralyzing civil conflict is not the outcome that he’s looking for”, Obama said. “Some of which, frankly, we don’t have a lot in common with, but do represent significant factions inside Syria”, Obama said.
“I do think that this points to an ongoing problem with the Russian operations in the sense that they are operating very close to a Turkish border and they are going after moderate opposition that are supported by not only Turkey but a wide range of countries”, the president noted. Russian Federation has said the plane was over Syrian airspace, on its way to attack ISIS targets.
Discussing the Syria crisis with world leaders in Paris, Obama also urged Turkey and Russian Federation to set aside recent tensions that have undermined his efforts to strengthen the U.S.-led coalition fighting defeating the Islamic State group.
“So we have been having our militaries work together to determine how a combination of air and Turkish ground forces on the Turkish side of the border can do a much better job of sealing the border”, he said. North Atlantic Treaty Organisation protocol calls for a North Atlantic Treaty Organisation member country to actually talk to the command center before taking such action, but I’m assuming that you are aware of this. This means that it plays the role that every government should play – maintaining relations with the opponents, too, Assad said. “As soon as such a claim is proved, the nobility of our nation requires (me) to do this”, Erdogan said. “Otherwise you fight them, while they have unlimited supplies [of arms] from different countries, primarily of other region with support or the blind eye of the West. More precisely some of its states”, Assad added. The diplomatic flurry comes after Friday’s attacks by Islamic State in Paris that killed at least 129 people.
