NATO member was first crashed Russian plane called an emergency meeting of NATO! Putin: "This is a stab in the back to Russia, they nailed it associates of terrorists'
"" This event comes out of the normal scope of the fight against terrorism. Of course, our troops are doing a heroic job in this fight ... But our loss today is a knife in the back, who scored associates of terrorists. I can not describe it any other way.
Our aircraft was shot down over Syria, a projectile fired from a Turkish F-16 fighter jet. He fell 4 kilometers inside Syrian territory. None of the pilots or the aircraft did not threaten Turkey. It is very obvious. They fought against the terrorists in the northern areas around Latakia, where are they located militants who mostly come from Russia. These are the international terrorists and the duty of the pilots was to ensure that these people do not return to Russia.
Please note that we have signed a contract on entering conflicts with the US, and as far as we know, Turkey is a part of their coalition. Because ISIS has enormous financial resources from oil sales, which are measured in billions of dollars, and are protected by the military forces of other countries, it is clear why the jihadists so bold, why kill people, why are planned and carried out terrorist attacks in the heart of Europe.
We will analyze everything and today's tragic event will have consequences, including those by the Russian-Turkish relations. We have always treated Turkey as a friendly country. I do not know where this incident was in the interest because we certainly did not. And instead of first contact us, the Turkish side is first contacted its partners in NATO as if we shot down their aircraft, and they are not ours. "
Does NATO want to serve ISIS? I understand that each country has its own regional interests, and we have always respected, but we will never allow to happen crimes like today. We hope that the international community will find the strength to fight together against evil. "
