Answering a question on whether Moscow wants to form a broad anti-terrorist coalition, Putin said: „We always supported this.“ „However, this cannot be done while someone continues to use several terrorist organizations to reach their immediate goals,“ he added.
The Russian president stressed that financial support to terrorists in Syria continues. „We have recently received additional reports that confirm that that oil from ISIL-controlled [Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant – former name of the Islamic State terrorist organization] territories is delivered to the territory of Turkey on an industrial scale,“ Putin noted.
