Moscow: Turkey’s non-commitment to its obligations reason behind deterioration of situation in Idleb

Moscow, SANA- Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that non- commitment of Turkish regime to its obligations under Sochi agreement is one of main reasons for deterioration of the situation in Idleb.

Zakharova, in statement on Thursday, expressed concern over the situation in Idleb as it has turned into a stronghold of a terrorist alliance.

Quoted by Sputnik news agency, Zakharova underlined that the failure in implementation of Russian–Turkish memorandum, which was signed on 17 Septmber,2018, in Sochi was a main reason behind deterioration of the situation in Idleb, indicating that despite of the implementation of the de-escalation zone agreement in the area, the militants continue conducting shelling attacks on neighboring towns and Syrian Arab Army’s posts.

She indicated that consultations on situation in Idleb, which started on Wednesday between Russia and Turkey, will continue today, asserting that the two sides will discuss a number of issues related to the situation in Idleb.
