The measure, in favor of détente and on the way to greater negotiations, clashes with the position of the United States in the United Nations Security Council.
Similarly, and despite the first moments of calm in the region mentioned, terrorist groups violated at least six times the truce and launched attacks even with drones, against regions of the neighboring province of Latakia, according to sources like the Center for Reconciliation in Syria.
In that sense, the permanent representative of Russia before the international organization, Vasili Nebenzia, stated that the UN Security Council did not manage to approve the statement to the press in support of those Russian-Turkish agreements and it was ‘because of the United States’, highlighted this Saturday by the media in Damascus.
The facts on the ground confirm that Washington’s position favors the attitude of groups like the Junta for the Salvation of the Levant (formerly Al Nusra) and the Islamic Party of Turkistan, the most active in the actions against the Syrian Army and continuous violators of any truce in the region.
These extremist organizations, together with members of the so-called National Liberation Front, formed with remnants of the former Syrian Free Army, backed by Turkey, sabotage any agreement on this matter, after being evicted from an area of just over two thirds that they controlled in the province of Idlib and surrounding areas of Aleppo.
