Russia selling weapons to Syria
Assadās comments in an interview published by Russian government newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta appeared to contradict Moscowās line that any Russian arms supplies to Damascus were agreed before the conflict began.
āThere are contracts that had been sealed before the crisis started and were carried out during the crisis,ā said Assad. āThere are other agreements on arms supplies and co-operation that were signed during the crisis and are being carried out now.ā
