"US military bases built in Syria as a result of the West's aggression against this country are used inter alia to pump out and smuggle Syrian oil - essentially to steal it,” Polyanskiy said during a UN meeting on terrorism. Moreover, the regions seized and occupied by the US military have led to the formation of a "real terrorist ghetto" around their bases, he added. “The situation in these places is nothing but a humanitarian and food crisis,” Polyanskiy said. Syria has been torn by conflict since 2011. Parts of its hydrocarbon-rich east are controlled by the United States and allied militants. After 13 years of instability, more than half of the country’s population requires food assistance, with millions being displaced, according to UN figures. The United States refused to leave the country after it invaded it in 2016 amid the Syrian civil war on the pretext of fighting terrorists. The government of Syria has repeatedly stated that it deems the presence of the US and Turkish troops on its territory as an act of military aggression and demanded that they immediately withdraw from the country.
