Russian official: S-300 shipment a message from Moscow
Alexei Pushkov, head of the foreign affairs committee in Russia’s parliament, said that Moscow is against a no-fly zone in Syria "because they become the first step to an air campaign." He further added that sending S-300 to Syria "is a message … we do not support any foreign interference in Syrian affairs.”
"Syria has been asking from Russia to give it the possibility to defend it from air strikes,” he told CNN's Christiane Amanpour. (Ynet)
