Lavrov to Tillerson: US Syria Strike ‘Unlawful, Very Disturbing’

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Wednesday told visiting US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson that Moscow views the US strikes in Syria as a violation of law.


“I will be frank that we have a lot of questions regarding very ambiguous as well as contradictory ideas regarding a whole plethora of bilateral and international agenda coming from Washington,” Lavrov said.

Lavrov stressed that it is “fundamentally important to prevent future US attacks on Syria.” He pointed out that it is difficult for Moscow to receive Washington’s explanations on operational issues because “not all State Department positions have been filled” yet.
