Claims that Russia's operation in Syria is illegal have no grounds,
Russian Foreign Ministry official spokesperson Maria Zakharova told a
roundtable on Syria on Wednesday.
"Statements that Russian operation in Syria is illegal are not supported by facts and are unfounded," she said.
Zakharova stated that Western media never refute information after their reports have been disavowed by Russian authorities. "New far-fetched speculations emerge every day. The aim of this scheme is very simple - to drown refutation attempts in this flow," she explained.
At the end of September , Russian Federation Council unanimously granted permission to the Russian president to use the nation’s military force in Syria. Russia will use only its Air Force in Syria against Islamic State (IS) and other terrorist groups upon the request of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Kremlin chief of staff Sergey Ivanov said, stressing that no ground troops would be sent to the country. Russian Aerospace Forces started delivering targeted strikes against IS facilities on Wednesday, September 30.
