Relations with the spiteful Russia!! What's wrong with these people?!
News:
An official delegation from the Syrian Ministry of Defense, headed by the Chief of the General Staff, Major General Ali Al-Nasan, arrived in the Russian capital, Moscow, where they were received by the Russian Deputy Minister of Defense, Yunus-Bek Yevkurov. This visit is part of efforts to develop coordination mechanisms between the two countries' defense ministries and enhance joint military cooperation.
This visit comes a few weeks after an important visit to Moscow at the end of last July, in which Foreign Minister Asaad Al-Shibani and Defense Minister Muhannad Abu Qasra participated, where they held a series of meetings with senior Russian officials. That visit witnessed extensive discussions on the economy, defense, politics, and reconstruction files.
During a joint press conference in Damascus with the Syrian Foreign Minister, Novak stressed that the next stage represents "opening a new page" between the two countries, and that future cooperation will be based on mutual respect and common interests. He also explained that the Russian delegation that arrived in Damascus recently included ministers, military officials, and diplomats to conduct extensive discussions that included vital files, most notably the economy, defense, and politics.
Comment:
We repeat and remind of the reality of Russia, because it is clear that forgetfulness has befallen the minds of many! On these very days, specifically on 9/30/2015, the direct Russian military intervention in Syria began alongside the regime and against the revolution. Since that stage, killing has taken on a different color, the smell of blood has a different taste, and even the features of the country have changed. How could it not, when Russia came with all its weight to stand with the criminal Assad and kill us as it pleases, without deterrent or prevention, but with political and military support and cover.
The spiteful Russia killed a lot of our sons, and destroyed a lot of our countries. Russia Sochi, Russia Astana, Russia of intrigues, hatred and criminality... Russia the massacre in Bdama in the western countryside of Idlib, Russia the massacre of Al-Hamama in the countryside of Jisr Al-Shughur, Russia the massacre of Ain Shib... Russia, which killed 4073 civilians from our people, and wounded 8431, as a result of 5751 attacks it launched on the incubator of the revolution.
This is Russia, gentlemen, which intervened after the deadly Iran and its Lebanese party failed to abort the revolution, so it came to put its feet again so that America's agent in the region would not fall. So where are we going, gentlemen? Has the compass gone the wrong way?!!
Aren't you the owners of the trenches that the Russian planes poured their heat over?! Aren't you the ones who clashed many times, and you killed some of them and they killed some of you, and they killed us and killed our people when they were unable to break your lines?!
The slogan of ending the influence of the countries of the West from our land was not a strange slogan; people have realized the danger of countries, their projects and their actions for years, so they raised it and called for it in their solutions and travels. So how do we work today to consolidate this influence through meetings with these people?! These are the first whose roots must be uprooted from our country, and the first with whom we must sever any relationship, especially after we have seen the extent of the wound they have created in our bodies. They tore the skin of our children, so where are you going?!!
It is a serious political mistake to establish relations with those who committed massacres against you; this reduces your value in his eyes, weakens your weight, and shakes your image in their eyes.
How not, when he looks at you as the victim he killed and displaced, and then sees you sitting with him at one table! Don't tell me that this is how relations are managed, that the war is over, that we are in a new phase, and that we must open up to the world! I tell you: Whoever forgets his past will not make anything in his present, and will not move on to his future. Whoever has no past, will have no future.
After all that we have mentioned of Russia's actions, intrigues and betrayals, do we say: "May God forgive what has passed"? Was what happened between us and it just a problem in a neighborhood?! It was blood, body parts, and history written in blood. It was a black history that Russia wrote against us and against our revolution. So there is no forgiveness for it, and there is no value for any idea that speaks of a relationship with a criminal, a killer, and a supporter of the butcher.
This is a dangerous slide, a catastrophic step, and an action that leads to what it leads to. So take it as advice and a reminder: "The enemy of your grandfather does not like you." Whoever kills you will not be a friend to you, nor a supporter, nor a backer. Let us beware of being like Mujeer Umm Amer, and we will receive what he received!
