Russia calls on Turkey to do more to clear jihadists from Idlib
[ALMASDARNEWS] The spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova said in a statement on Thursday that the Kremlin would like to see The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...Qatar's colony in Asia Minor....
do more to clear the jihadists from the Idlib Governorate.

According to Zakharova, Turkey needs to do more in order to fulfill their promies that were made at Sochi on September 17th, 2018.

This statement by Zakharova comes just days before Russian President Vladimir Putin
...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...
meets with his Iranian and Ottoman Turkish counterparts on Syria.

#3 Iran has been doing their bit, using Shiite cannon fodder from Afghanistan and Hezb’allah manpower with officers from the IRGC, if I understand correctly.
