Russia calling the shots as nations lock down Syria plan

Republican presidential frontrunner and Russian President Vladimir Putin seem set to form a mutual admiration society going by their high praise for each other. Republicans have frequently taken to bashing Putin and have used his rocky relationship with Democratic President Barack Obama as evidence that the administration lacks strength in worldwide affairs.

On the eve of the United Nations talks, Assad warned in an interview with Dutch television that misguided efforts to bring about regime change would make the conflict “drag on” and that only backers Russian Federation and Iran – not the West – were ready to resolve his country’s almost five-year conflict.

Some of Trump’s statements on Putin were apparently music to the Russian president’s ear. “Obviously that would be a concern, would it not?” A lot of killing and a lot of stupidity.

The other group, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the airstrikes killed 14 people.

Trump continued, “I think our country does plenty of killing also, Joe”. A lot of stupidity.

“We need to make sure the political process is irreversible in the face of this severe threat posed by global terrorism”, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said as he headed into the meeting at a NY hotel. But you didn’t ask me [that] question, you asked me a different question.

President Vladimir Putin, in a rare comment on his family life, said Thursday his two adult daughters were studying in Russian Federation and have never lived permanently overseas.

But former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, who has adopted the mantle of the Trump attack dog, has been the only candidate who has come out and criticized Trump on the issue.

Putin also accused Turkey’s leaders of overseeing a “creeping Islamisation” of the country “which would probably cause (modern Turkey’s founding father Mustafa Kemal) Ataturk to turn in his grave”.

“Now we have a clear opposition that is not Daesh”, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said.

“He’s actually got popularity within his country”. “Certainly over the last couple of years they’ve respected him as their leader”.

“Sen. Cruz’s silence suggests he endorses (Trump’s positions) in some way”, Walsh said. “So I guess, and I don’t know who does the polls, maybe he does the polls, but I think they’re done by American companies, actually”.
