    Must read the transcripts, of course. Trump will be wondering ‘what’s diplomacy??’ ….. :-)))
    We know about the failures of the ‘international’ versions.

  2. This is what has been wrong with the Obama administration.

    It has taken them 5 years to learn that they were being strung along by Assad, Russia, and the crazy Iranian mullahs.

    So as Obama leaves office and after barrel bomb Assad has killed 300,000 to 400,000 of his own people AND half the population of Syria are displayed/refugees, Obama finally says “those people are not serious about negotiating”.

    Duh. (Same thing is going on with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Crimea, Georgia, Japanese islands, etc.)

    1. A combo of MSM bull’shit propaganda.

  3. Russian Reconciliation Center evacuated 50,000 civilians from E. Aleppo in past 2 days – MoD
    “It seems that the UK government has lost an objective view of what is happening in Syria, including Aleppo, due to Russophobia,” Konashenkov responded, noting that the UK has not sent “a single gram of flour, any medicine or blankets to help” civilians in Aleppo during the entire Syrian conflict.

    “If the UK government really wants to send humanitarian aid to residents in the eastern neighborhoods [of Aleppo], it has all the conditions for doing this, just tell us where it [the aid] has been held up,” he added.
