Despite claiming to fight jihadists in Syria, the Americans are
gladly using them to further anti-Damascus policies and occasionally
giving them a helping hand, the Syrian foreign minister told RT.
“The Americans are using ISIS as a scarecrow,” Minister Walid Muallem said in an interview with RT Arabic.
“At the same time they are feeding ISIS, encourage them, protect ISIS leaders and help them move from one area to another.”
The US policy is aimed at investing into terrorism.

Syrian government has long accused the US of fueling groups of foreign
Islamist fighters, even those bragging of committing atrocities in
Syria, as long as they were willing to fight against the forces loyal to
Damascus. Washington claimed its illegal deployment of troops in Syria
was aimed at destroying IS, but even after the group was declared
defeated the American boots remain on the ground.

internationally recognized government of Syria of using the country’s
national resources.
