“The US does not hide the control objectives of Syrian oil fields and will obviously be ready to defend their intentions in any way. This fact not only worries about the situation on the Turkish-Syrian border, but also negatively affects the situation in Syria as a whole. Washington, which has repeatedly promised to withdraw troops from the territory of the Syrian Republic, is clearly preparing to maintain influence in the region. ” This was stated by a member of the State Duma Committee on Foreign Affairs Sergey Zheleznyak.
He noted: “US destructive maneuvers in Syria are causing confusion and destabilizing the situation in the region. This is especially dangerous at a time when, through the efforts of Russian diplomacy and the personal participation of the head of our state, it was possible to reach agreements with Turkey, as well as to coordinate them with the leadership of Syria in order to stop armed clashes on the Turkish-Syrian border.
Russia’s obvious diplomatic and military successes in the Syrian settlement, an unprecedented bilateral memorandum with Turkey, haunt the pride of American warriors. They immediately hastened to loudly announce the liquidation of the leader of the terrorists, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, of which there are great doubts, and now they are announcing to the whole world their intention to control oil production in Syria. A logical question arises – on what basis are uninvited guests from the United States trying to dispose of the bowels of a sovereign state? The greedy economic interests of the United States in Syria overshadow all other goals. “The US is trying to compensate for the lack of sales markets for expensive shale oil by using all possible means to maintain control over the international oil industry, most often resorting to non-market methods of competition.”
