First response from Russia to US strike: response will follow
So it happened. The Americans turned from words to deeds and, as part of a coalition with Britain and France, launched a missile strike on the Syrian Arab Republic. The reason for military aggression was a clear provocation with the use of chemical weapons during the liberation from terrorists by government forces of East Guta. On the eve there were reports of the possible involvement of the British special services in the staging of the use of chemical weapons against the Syrian people with the aim of accusing the regime of Bashar al-Assad and his allied Russia of this crime.
The Englishwoman, chemical weapons, Russia's accusation: how familiar this is with the Skripal case. It is noteworthy that a military strike was struck on the same day when the experts of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, which could bring out the fact of provocation, were to start investigating a chemical attack in Eastern Ghuta. However, Washington and London, as well as Paris that joined them, were satisfied only with the fact that the use of chemical weapons as an occasion had taken place and carried out military aggression against Syria, without waiting for the results of the investigation.
According to preliminary data, from 100 to 120 Tomogavk-class missiles were fired at facilities in the Arab Republic. According to available information, cruise missiles aimed at the Homs province were intercepted by air defense forces. The Russian military contingent located in the territory of allied Syria was not affected by the attacks of the Western coalition.
Despite the fact that a direct military clash between Russia and Western forces has not yet occurred, the situation is taking an extremely negative development trend. Deputy State Duma of the Russian Federation Alexander Sherin, first deputy chairman of the defense committee, commented on the military aggression against the Syrian Arab Republic:
In the Russian Federation Council, they are in solidarity with the position of Deputy Sherin. Representatives of the upper house of Parliament intend to take all possible diplomatic efforts in order to consolidate the international community and condemn the military aggression of the Western coalition. Andrei Klimov, the head of the commission for the protection of state sovereignty, draws the attention of foreign parliamentarians to the illegality of the actions of the United States, the United Kingdom and the Fifth Republic:
The Russian ambassador in Washington, Yuri Antonov, spoke sharply of Western aggression against allied Syria, considering it an insult to the Russian president:
At the same time, Antonov draws attention to the fact that it is the United States of America that today is the owner of the world's largest arsenal of chemical weapons. In 2017, Russia completed the process of eliminating its arsenal of toxic substances, and also contributed to the destruction of its reserves in official Damascus.
