MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Last week, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which includes the Kurdish People's Defense Units (YPG), supported by Washington, started an operation to liberate Daesh-occupied Raqqa from the terrorist group, which has been in control of the city since 2013.
"We have always said we are ready for cooperation in fight against terrorism. Russia and the United States are the leading parties and observers in the intra-Syrian talks and the International Syria Support Group. Cooperation with these two countries both against terrorists and against their supporters, such as Turkey, will be efficient," Osman said.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Moscow was prepared to coordinate efforts with the US-led coalition and Kurdish militia in Syria to liberate the city of Raqqa, considered by Daesh as its capital.
