MOSCOW - A senior Russian official warned the United States on Saturday against making any "reckless" moves in Syria, the RIA news agency reported.

 

Reacting to comments by US National Security Adviser John Bolton about Washington's possible strong reaction in the event of a chemical or biological attack in the Syrian region of Idlib, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said: "We warn the Americans and their allies against taking new reckless steps in Syria."

 

"We are hearing ultimatums from Washington ... and it does not affect our determination to continue our policy for the total elimination of terrorist epicentres in Syria and the return of this country to a normal life," RIA quoted Ryabkov as saying.
