Moscow, Damascus want American troops out of Syria
Tehran (KNA) - Moscow and Damascus have jointly called on Washington to end its military presence on Syrian soil and let Syrian government forces and allied Russian troops evacuate civilians from a refugee camp near Jordan.
A joint statement released by the Russian Defense Ministry on Wednesday urged "the United States, whose military units are on Syrian territory illegally, to leave the country."
It also demanded that the American forces allow the evacuation of the people based in the Rukban refugee camp in southeastern Syria near Jordan's border.
Russian and Syrian forces have prepared buses to relocate the refugees in Rukban and would guarantee them safe passage, the statement noted.
