I guess the US has crossed a "Red Line" according to Russia by shooting down a Syrian jet fighter yesterday that had bombed coalition forces in Syria.
The Russian Defense Ministry called American attacks against the Syrian forces “military aggression” and announced that it would suspend cooperation with the United States intended to prevent airborne accidents over Syria.
“All flying objects, including planes and drones of the international coalition, detected west of the Euphrates, will be followed by Russian air defense systems as targets,” the Russian Defense Ministry said in a statement.
The United States will continue to conduct air operations over Syria, a spokesman for the American-led task force that is fighting the Islamic State said on Monday.
“We are going to continue to conduct operations throughout Syria, providing air support for coalition and partnered forces on the ground,” the spokesman, Col. Ryan Dillon, said in a telephone interview from Baghdad.
I guess the love fest between Putin and Trump is coming to a close. The Russians were not exactly enthralled by the cruise missile strike in February, and they sure as shit are not pleased now, essentially saying one more time, and the gloves are off.
Just keep up the good work Trump, and drag the USA into a war we cannot win.
Nice
