| Turkey has allowed its observation posts, established under a 2018 deal with Moscow, to virtually merge with terrorist bases in Idlib, Russia’s Defense Ministry said, amid a Turkish assault against advancing Syrian forces. | |
| “The fortified areas of the terrorists have merged with the Turkish observation posts deployed under the 2018 Sochi agreement,” Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Major General Igor Konashenko, said early on Wednesday. | |
| Europe and the United States have consistently ignored Turkey’s failure to abide by the 2018 deal, the spokesman went on, stating that neither is “interested in the actual humanitarian situation inside and around Idlib.” | |
| Despite repeated attacks on civilians and clear links to known terrorist groups, Western media have transformed Idlib’s armed factions into so-called 'moderates' the spokesman went on. | |
| “Where among these supposedly ‘opposition’ fighters in the Turkish-controlled zone was [Abu Mohammad] al-Julani – the leader of Jabhat al-Nusra, a terrorist group officially recognized by the UN – together with his nearly twenty thousand cutthroats?” he asked. | |
