Russia steps up Syria support ‘to stop fall of Assad’

Al Jazeera  

EU foreign affairs chief says Russia is boosting its military backing to halt “imminent” fall of government. Russia intends to step up its military involvement in Syria to prevent the “imminent” collapse of the Syrian government, the EU’s foreign policy chief has told Al Jazeera. In an interview with Al Jazeera’s James Bays for Talk to Al Jazeera, the EU’s high representative for foreign affairs and security policy said that Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told her his country wanted to prevent the collapse of the Syrian state. Bays said EU and US leaders meeting at the UN headquarters in New York were divided on what role Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a close ally of Russia’s Vladimir Putin, would play after any future settlement. US Secretary of State John Kerry and Mogherini discussed the issue with the Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York.
