Russian President Vladimir Putin lashed out during Turkey on Tuesday, saying the craft was shot down over Syria and acted no hazard to Turkey. He pronounced a occurrence would have “serious consequences†for family with Turkey, and indicted Turkish leaders of being “ terrorism accomplices.”
The occurrence occurred as French President Francois Hollande was about to lay down with President Obama during a White House to press Washington and Moscow to join in a joined bid to fight a Islamic State in a home bottom in Syria. He designed to revisit Moscow immediately after withdrawal Washington.
His idea was dicey from a start. That’s since Russia, Turkey, a United States and France are all concerned in Syria’s 4-year-old polite fight but supporting opposite factions, some of that are fighting any other.
All dispute a Islamic State. But Russia supports a regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad in a conflict, while Turkey and a United States wish him out. The U.S. is supporting rebels seeking to overpower Assad and has accused Russia of targeting some of those insurgent groups instead of a Islamic State, that also is fighting Assad.
Russia says it, too, is fighting a Islamic State and other terrorists, and it increased a attacks opposite a nonconformist group after a Russian airliner was brought down by a explosve over Egypt’s Sinai peninsula on Oct. 31, murdering all 224 aboard. The Islamic State claimed shortcoming for that attack.
Turkey has prolonged advocated for larger Western support for a rebels battling Assad. The U.S., that is seeking a diplomatic solution to a Syrian polite war, has sought to enlist Russia and Iran — Assad’s categorical supporters — along with Turkey and other supporters of a Syrian rebels to behind assent talks. But that bid is creation meagre progress.
After a Paris attacks, Hollande pronounced defeating a Islamic State is a top priority, a position seconded by Obama, who pronounced he would cruise coordinating efforts with Russia so prolonged as they stay focused on their common enemy, a Islamic State.
Now, the downing of a Russian warplane by a U.S. fan illustrates how far Hollande is from his idea of bringing Moscow and Washington into his grand alliance.
