Putin pushes for coordinated framework to fight IS

AFP

Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview released Sunday, September 27, that he was seeking partners to set up a “coordinated framework” to fight the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria. Putin, who called for “a common platform for collective action against the terrorists”, said he had personally informed the kings of Saudi Arabia and Jordan of his plan and that he had also informed the United States. Russia has increased its military presence in Syria, deploying more troops and warplanes to an air base along with new arms deliveries to President Bashar al-Assad’s forces.
