Russia issued the United States last warning

3
A day or two - that’s all the time it takes for U.S. President Donald Trump to verify the reliability of reports of the use of chemical weapons in Syria and decide on a military operation.





However, it seems that he has already been convinced of reliability in advance - and for a long time. Very long before the evening of April 7, when the first reports began about the alleged chemical attack in the Syrian city of Duma, near one of the hospitals. No wonder the Russian Ministry of Defense warned of an impending provocation in a few months.

Despite the fact that the doctors of the Red Crescent and the Russian specialists of the Center for the Reconciliation of the warring parties categorically deny the fact of the use of chlorine (or sarin, according to some media) in the Duma, Western policy continue to plug their ears, not wanting to hear the truth. For them, it is not even important to find out whether chlorine or sarin was used, and if used, by whom. The culprits are determined in advance. The situation is becoming more dangerous.

Donald Trump told reporters that Washington has “a lot of military response options.” And he intends to make it known "very soon, perhaps already after the fact."

Reuters, citing sources in the US government, reports that the US is considering options for a military operation in Syria. The Institute for Middle Eastern Policy in Washington, at all, believes that the strike could be struck at the Khmeimim airbase, the center of the Russian Air Force.

On the evening of April 9, an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council took place. The US Permanent Representative to the UN, Nikki Haley, imagined his country to be the “arbiter of justice,” and accused Russia of “destructive politics,” which, in her opinion, is being pursued by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

We have reached the point where the world must see that justice is done. This will go down in history as the moment the Security Council either fulfills its obligations or demonstrates a complete inability to protect the people of Syria. In any case, the United States will respond

- said Haley, who was previously known for her fiery speeches in defense of terrorists from the rostrum of the UN Security Council.

For his part, the Permanent Representative of Russia Vasily Nebenzya pointed out that the videos on the basis of which Washington draws its conclusions are clearly staged. According to him, it is necessary that the OPCW specialists travel to the area of ​​the alleged chemical attack and conduct an investigation. It is necessary to rely on facts, and not draw conclusions only on commercials.

As for the United States, the Russian diplomat said that no one authorized them and their allies to "assume the role of world gendarmes", and advised "to moderate hawkish rhetoric."

Nebenzya warned that an armed attack on Syria would entail a tough response:

We have repeatedly warned the American side about the possible very negative consequences of their possible use of weapons against the legitimate Syrian government and, in particular, if the use of these weapons, God forbid, of course, will affect our military, who are legally located in Syria


Unfortunately, there are more and more signals that the US is still preparing for a monstrous adventure. According to the Wall Street Journal, Washington sent two warships to the shores of Syria. The destroyer Donald Cook, equipped with 60 Tomahawks, is already located near the Syrian city of Tartus (where, incidentally, is the logistics point of the Russian fleet). Another vessel, the USS Porter, can join it.

The Turkish edition of Hurriyet reported that Russian military aircraft have flown over the destroyer Donald Cook four times already. The Pentagon refutes this information.

    Last Russian warning? Rjunemagu ... laughing You are reminded of the years of your youth, when the expression "the last Chinese warning" was born in the crisis in US-China relations. How we had fun ... request It looks like now "the last Russian warning" is being born. Go ahead, you can remind:

    The fact is that in the distant 50s the USA did not have official diplomatic relations with communist China and the government of the Celestial Empire, headed by Comrade Mao, was not recognized. But the old government, crowded out with its head Chiang Kai-shek into Taiwan, on the contrary, was even recognized. Comrade Mao, of course, this fact pleased little. Moreover, both the Americans and the rebellious Taiwan angered him almost equally strongly, therefore the situation in the area of ​​the Taiwan Strait favored little love and friendship. Unsurprisingly, the sufferings of Comrade Mao were of little concern to the Americans, and their planes and ships regularly invaded the air and water space of the People's Republic of China.
    Each such violation caused a storm of protest in the friendly Chinese communist ranks and responded on the world stage with the publication of another protest. These protests were officially called “warnings,” they were numbered and correspondingly formidable postscript: LAST. Of course, these warnings of a friendly power were broadcast by the Soviet media, and they were read, as a rule, in a particularly solemn tone.
    Naturally, all this could not go unnoticed by our people, who, as you know, love to laugh at even more harmless things.

    Americans don't give a damn about anything. They want to take root in Syria and ultimately tear it apart. So all these "chemical attacks" and all the other lies are as they were and will be.
    You need to react calmly to all this. If all the same there will be a blow to Syria, at least from one state of NATO countries, to answer for PATSANSKY is cool.
    From destroyed 10 planes or a couple of ships, it will not decrease from them, but a specific answer
    make them think - is it worth teasing the BEAR? They simply won’t understand anything else, and no longer need.

    And why does the United States not remember the million dead Iraqis? Destroyed by the Americans. And mostly civilians destroyed? And suddenly they burned with love for the Syrian terrorists?
    Russia needs to quickly destroy their two hundred American and British instructors present in Idlib. Then there would be no debate about a chemical attack.
    I said earlier that it was necessary to sink two destroyers, which launched a hundred Tomahawks in April this year. This third attack would not have been.
