PanARMENIAN.Net - Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu suggested
Friday, July 5 there is no civil war in Syria, but rather an ongoing
battle against `roving' international forces, according to RIA
Novosti.
`It is more of a fight against forces that, one way or another, are
roving between different kinds of conflicts within various states,'
Shoigu said at the start of negotiations in Moscow with a Swedish
military delegation led by Defense Minister Karin Enstrom.
At least 93,000 people have been killed in Syria since fighting broke
out in March 2011 between government forces and rebels, according to
the latest UN figures.
