Russia uses
state-of-the-art precision-guided weapons in its Syrian aerial campaign,
accurately striking targets aimed at.
Painstaking efforts are
taken to hit ISIS and other terrorist elements only, scrupulously avoiding
civilian casualties. Photographic evidence proves it. Claims otherwise are Big
Lies.
Washington (like Israel)
French Foreign Minister
Laurent Fabius [pictured above] showed his government’s opposition to Russia’s
war on ISIS – calling on it to cease its military operations, accusing it
of killing civilians.
After meeting with Syrian
defector Riad Hihab, he said:
“(w)e discussed the
absolute necessity that Syria and Russia end their military operations against
civilians and in particular the ordeal in Madaya and other cities besieged by
the regime.”
Fact: Syrian military
forces continue fighting to liberate cities, towns and villages held captive by
ISIS and other terrorist elements.
Fact: Russia’s effective
aerial campaign is crucial to their success.
Fact: France is part of the
problem, not the solution, supporting the scourge it claims to oppose.
Fact: Fabius willfully
lied, claiming Russian aerial operations kill civilians, without citing a shred
of corroborating evidence.
Another round of so-called
peace talks are scheduled to begin on January 25 – with virtually zero chance
for success. Washington, France and other rogue partners want war, not peace.
They want Syrians
disenfranchised, arrogating to themselves authority to decide who’ll govern the
country, wanting its sovereignty destroyed.
Hihab is a traitor, bribed
to betray his nation and people – chosen as opposition coordinator in upcoming
talks, irresponsibly demanding Assad must go.
French President Francois
Hollande is in lockstep with Washington, insisting he “has no role in the Syria
of tomorrow.”
According to Fabius,
UN-mediated peace talks have “two elements. On the one hand, the immediate end
of bombardments and on the other hand that the agenda of these negotiations are
sufficiently precise and there is no doubt in particular over who will govern”
– demands assuring failure.
Putin insists Syrians alone
must decide who’ll lead them, free from outside interference. “We do not want
(the country) to end (up) like Iraq or Libya,” he said, wanting peace and
stability restored.
Foreign Ministry
spokeswoman Maria Zakharova blasted Fabius’ willful lie about Russia’s aerial
campaign killing civilians – calling his claim totally “unfounded.”
“Russia’s aims in Syria are
transparent,” she stressed, “call(ing) on all countries to unite efforts
in the fight against terrorism”
