The head of the Russian foreign policy department, Sergei Lavrov, speaking at a press conference at the UN, expressed the opinion that the Syrian settlement should not be expected in the near future, since "this is a very difficult crisis".

To a large extent, the process is dragged out, according to him, by the fact that the US refuses to coordinate the actions to destroy terrorists seriously, simply because the taboo on such interaction between the US military and the Russians is imposed by the law on budget allocations for the congress. And even with the fact that there is a "deconflexing", "the huge potential of our relations is idle, even reduced due to Russophobic hysteria," the Russian Foreign Minister said..

Mines delayed action under the relationship between Russia and the United States was laid by the Obama administration, the minister said, which acted vindictively, in a petty manner, which, as Lavrov stressed, he did not expect from the Nobel Peace Prize laureate. The policy pursued by the former president of the United States has been hailing the world to this day.

But "if from territories that are close to American" friends "" will prevent the defeat of terrorists, they will not remain unanswered, "warned the head of Russian diplomacy during a meeting of the UN General Assembly with Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem. According to Lavrov, Moscow, in contact with representatives of the State Department, the Pentagon, brings to their attention what is happening.

Muallem in response noted that Syria is believed in the rapid completion of the crisis, even though the United States puts the sticks in the wheels of the Syrian army in Deir ez Zor.

Earlier, the Russian General Staff issued a statement that it was with the submission of American instructors that the rebels of the illegal organization "Djebhat an Nusra" in the Russian Federation launched an offensive operation in the province of Idlib,. Under the impact, there were 29 Russian military police officers who monitored the ceasefire of the de-escalation zone. The purpose of the militants, believe in Moscow, was not to give Assad's army a success in moving east of Deir ez Zor.

At the same time, the Russian Foreign Minister firmly insists that it is absolutely impossible to allow the division of Syria, and the zone of de-escalation, agreements on which it was possible to achieve in Astana, should consolidate political forces in the Arab Republic, including the opposition.

Otherwise, chaos will cover the entire Middle East.

For six months, he said, de-escalation zones will operate, but they are temporary, in parallel the process of national reconciliation, dialogue.

And after the armed conflict in Syria is over, from there, Lavrov believes, everyone who is in the country's territory illegally should be expelled. And the decision regarding those who are there on legal grounds the Syrian authorities will take "following the results of the political process".
