Daniel Drezner, a professor at the American Tufts University, drew attention to the fact that Russia does not abandon its allies. So he commented on Moscow’s granting of asylum to former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
The Wall Street Journal writes that.
‘The fact that Assad did land in Moscow proves that Russia does not abandon its own,’ Drezner said.
On the evening of 8 December, it became known that Assad and his family members had arrived in Moscow, with Russia granting them asylum. Russian diplomat Mikhail Ulyanov noted that Russia does not betray friends in difficult situations and in this it differs from the United States.
In addition, the Foreign Ministry answered the journalist’s question about the extradition of Assad at the request of the ICC.
