“Of course, the strikes and actions in the Golan Heights area, in the buffer zone area, are unlikely to help stabilize the situation in an already destabilized Syria.”
STORYLINE:
The Kremlin said Wednesday that Russia has maintained contact with the new authorities in Syria.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that "we are monitoring most closely what is happening in Syria.”
“We, of course, maintain contacts with those who are currently controlling the situation in Syria," Peskov said in a conference call with reporters.
“This is necessary because our bases are located there, our diplomatic mission is located there and, of course, the issue related to ensuring the security of these facilities is extremely important and of primary significance.”
Peskov wouldn’t give details of those contacts and didn’t elaborate, saying only that Russia has contacted those who are controlling the situation on the ground.
He wouldn’t give the number of troops Russia has in Syria.
Asked to comment about Israel’s moves, Peskov called them destabilizing.
“The strikes and actions in the Golan Heights area, in the buffer zone area, are unlikely to help stabilize the situation in an already destabilized Syria,” he said.
