A Hezbollah funeral: The Shia Muslim militants are
fighting alongside Syrian government troops against rebel groups
President Vladimir Putin has
defended Russia's military operations in Syria, saying the aim is to
"stabilise the legitimate authority" of Syrian President Bashar
al-Assad.
On Monday the EU's foreign affairs chief, Federica Mogherini, called Russia's role "a game-changer". She said: "It has some very worrying elements."
EU ministers are discussing Syria now.
Going into the Luxembourg meeting, several foreign ministers stressed that air strikes should only target so-called Islamic State (IS) fighters and other Islamist "terrorists".
The US and UK governments have accused Russia of attacking mainly "moderate" anti-Assad groups, rather than the jihadists.
Mr Putin denied that that was the case.

ReplyDeletebut a sleeper cell. They might not want to fight but when called on by their people they will either fight or help pay the ones that do. I don't trust a one of them.
Agreed.
