US accused of plundering wealth of Syrian people

US actions in Syrian oil fields are illegal.

This statement was made by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in a video conference with Russian leader Vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

“The illegal actions of Americans in the oil-producing areas of Syria are in fact plunder of the wealth of the Syrian people”, – Rouhani said, noting also that the very presence of the American occupation contingent in Syria is a serious destabilizing factor for the entire region.
