#Polyanskiy: Donor contributions to these works will not only help improve the status of ordinary #Syria|ns, but also reduce cost of #humanitarian works while increasing their added value. In our view, this simple math-based logic is hard to argue with. @mfa_russia https://t.co/Y1iRDUBhDM
#Polyanskiy: From the most recent documents, we can cite the reports by #FAO and #WHO, which address the devastating impact of sanctions on agricultural production and deliveries of medicines and medical equipment to #Syria. Those who suffer from that are ordinary Syrians🇸🇾. https://t.co/ffOhNa6asA
#Polyanskiy: #ISIL was struck heavily in #Syria. #Terrorists were defeated and had to flee from the government-controlled territory. The problems remain where the Americans created legal vacuum and where Syria’s sovereign territory remains occupied by foreign troops. https://t.co/HUYZRrPsVG
#Polyanskiy: The illegal presence of US🇺🇸 military in #Syria🇸🇾 created a “lawless zone” in the north-east, where foreign terrorists, militants, and criminals feel perfectly at ease. There is anarchy and violence, and terrorists are divided into “the good and the bad”. https://t.co/YJJ8HpQgf9
#Kuzmin: Terrorist threats trigger great problems in NE #Syria. The illegally present US military fail to etablish order there. The atmosphere of lawlessness that evolves around the locations where🇺🇸contingents're deployed creates favorable conditions for #terrorists of all sorts https://t.co/gzlLEtGs7y
#Kuzmin: One of #Syria’s major #humanitarian challenges also takes us to the territory, illegally occupied by the #UnitedStates – camps “Al-Hol” and “Roj”, where dozens of thousand women and children are kept in horrible conditions. https://t.co/qCwsjTuIJP
#Kuzmin: The local militants definitely gained in strength and courage, because now they openly attack detention facilities where their “brothers-in-arms” are held. As a result, even those #terrorists who have been put to prison now turn out free. #Syria @mfa_russia https://t.co/AjTn0GUIji
#Kuzmin: Withdrawal of American🇺🇸 occupational forces from #Syria would allow Syrians to clear the remaining #terrorist hotbeds in the country and ensure safety of the population. As record shows, the Government of Syria🇸🇾 can do this in a much more effective way. https://t.co/pyYkAXoUXO
#Kuzmin: Russia has been engaging systemically with the authorities of #Syria and #Iraq to evacuate children from conflict zones. We've built an effective system of interaction that lets identify & repatriate children of🇷🇺citizens while fully complying w/norms of the intn'l law. https://t.co/MbwOpbOEpd
#Kuzmin: By this time, appr.3⃣5⃣0⃣ minors have safely returned from #Syria and #Iraq. One of our priority tasks at this track is ensuring social adaptation of these children. To achieve this, we among other things render support to their relatives who act as caregivers. https://t.co/LTbJMkTO1j
#Polyanskiy: We're concerned over Tel Aviv’s announced plans for expanding settlement activity in the occupied #GolanHeights, which contradicts the provisions of the 1949 Geneva Convention. Russia doesn't recognize Israel's sovereignty over Golan Heights that are part of #Syria. https://t.co/slHQSefJp5
#Nebenzia: In this context, we commend the activity of #Baghdad-based four-lateral Information Center, where the military of #Russia, #Iraq, #Iran and #Syria take part. This mechanism does the important work coordinating counter-terrorism steps in Iraq & Syria. @mfa_russia https://t.co/N1qvbZldWr
#Nebenzia: On 24 February, 14 children aged 3-15 years returned to Russia [from #Syria]. 5⃣had stayed at orphanages in Damascus, the other9⃣had been evacuated from refugee camps in cross-Euphrates area. We'll keep searching for 🇷🇺children in 🇸🇾camps and working to take them home. https://t.co/0oKkIjeydY
#Nebenzia at UNSC meeting on #Syria: Starting from December 2018, 364 Russian🇷🇺 children have been repatriated from conflict zones in the #MiddleEast. At this moment, sets of documents have been prepared for evacuation of further 128 children. https://t.co/zOqepmXigo
#Polyanskiy: Threat of possible use of chemical weapons by terrorists [in #Syria] is still there, to our deepest regret. As lately as 26 February,🇷🇺Defense Ministry reported that militants from “Jabhat al-Nusra” delivered tanks w/poisoning agents, presumably chlorine, to #Idlib. https://t.co/fOaWGcWWB5
#Polyanskiy: Investigation and Identification Team, as well as the Fact-Finding Mission for #Syria, violates the Chemical Weapons Convention as far as its principles of investigations, first of all those applying to collection and secure preservation of evidence. https://t.co/YJcQs8BDiq
#Polyanskiy: Biased conclusions of the #IIT became the basis for the punitive decision to incapacitate #Syria at the #OPCW on a far-fetched pretext. It was the 1st time such a step was taken against a sovereign state that complied with the #CWC faithfully. https://t.co/mYPJgEYzIh https://t.co/fV9qANP8Ld
