Russia’s ambassador to the UN urges Israel to leave Syria alone
Russia’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, speaking at a meeting of the UN Security Council, said that it is necessary to put an end to “the illegal presence” of the United States in Syria.
Nebenzya stressed that Syria loses about $40 million a month because of its inability to access its oil fields, noting that the “barbaric methods” used by the United States in oil production could lead to an environmental disaster in northeastern Syria and Iraq.
Nebenzya didn’t forget about Israel either.
“We once again call on Israel to stop airstrikes on Syrian territory, to end the foreign occupation of Syria, as well as attempts to pull Syria apart,” RIA Novosti quotes Nebenzya as saying.
Speaking at the same meeting, Bashar Jaafari, the Syrian ambassador to the United Nations, stated that the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights had been and would remain part of Syria and Washington’s recognition of the Israeli annexation of the territory had no legal basis.

“We once again call on Israel to stop airstrikes on Syrian territory, to end the foreign occupation of Syria, as well as attempts to pull Syria apart,”
He should have added, “because the Israelis are showing our air defence systems up, for the junk they really are.” Also this guy needs to go back to Russia and see real environmental disasters, not potential ones. Siberia is on fire, an area the size of Greece, and the rivers are running red with god knows what concoction of chemical pollutants.

“…it is necessary to put an end to “the illegal presence” of the United States in Syria.”
It is actually the other way around … the illegal presence of mafia land. The invitation of a murdering dick-tator has no legitimization of legal presence for Mordor in Syria.

Yeah, just a tad bit rich to call for the end of occupation of Syria but democratic countries when their fascist country is sustaining several illegal and immoral occupations. Its like criticizing a man for beating his wife and then going home and beating your wife, your children and your dogs.
