During the weekly briefing, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova explained the scheme for the preparation of a chemical attack in Syria, prepared by the US, and recalled that such a move, either with a real imposition of chemical weapons, or a staged one, would be a heavy blow to global security.
“The US retains its illegal presence in Syria and again threatens armed aggression”
“The consequences of games with fire are unpredictable and can not always get away with,” Maria Zakharova said, referring to Russia’s strong disquiet for such unacceptable plans.“There is an active preparation of chemical attack, so that further the United States could strike a blow to Syria”
The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation noted that according to the available data of the Russian military, which the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation announced on August 27, certain substances were already delivered to representatives of the White Helmets.
