US Military Must Withdraw For Syria Peace - Russia-Syria Statement
A joint Russian-Syrian statement has demanded US troops withdraw from Syria as the only way to ensure human rights are observed, accusing them of stealing oil and wheat, and imposing illegal unilateral sanctions.
?The occupation of Syrian territory by the US and its allied forces under the pretext of 'counter-terrorism' actions actually only contributes to the growing security threats to the entire Middle East,? the statement read.
?The US can neither ensure the safety of civilians in the refugee camps nor guarantee the inalienable rights of thousands of children there to a decent life, education and medical care. Only the withdrawal of the U.S. military contingent and the transfer of the refugee camps to the control under the Syrian government can ensure the respect of human rights.?
