Russia Accuses the US of Protecting al-Nusra in Syria
Earlier this month, the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the United States has a double standard in respect to fighting terrorism in Syria.
Lavrov said “the West is ready to fight against Daesh, but still shields al-Nusra Front,” also known as Jabhat Fateh al-Sham.
In September, Lavrov said the US will use al-Nusra as part of its “Plan B” to overthrow Bashar al-Assad.
