Russia plans to send its planes and patrols to the US-controlled area of ​​Syria.

The information agency Sputnik, referring to a statement by Major General of the General Staff of the Russian Defense Ministry Valery Gerasimov, reports that Russia intends to deploy its troops in the Al-Tanf region, which is currently controlled by the Syrian armed opposition and the US military.

“For our part, we proposed putting an end to the monopolization of the region and consider joint Russian-American control over border crossings, but the American partners left our proposals unanswered.”, - the report says.

In fact, the US military had previously refused to leave the region in eastern Syria, citing control of the Syrian-Iraqi border, while Russia did not even rule out massive attacks on militant positions in the region, since militants and armed opposition regularly carry out attacks on the Syrian military, citing the fact. that the strikes are inflicted solely on the militants, but it is the infrastructure of the military bases of the Syrian government forces that suffers.

Analysts estimate the chances that the United States will allow the Russian military to enter Al-Tanf as minimal, since several American military bases are located in this region.
