• It has never been issued similar speech by a Russian official that is similar to the words said by the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at a precise moment in the US-Russian relations about Hezbollah.
• In previous times Mikhail Bogdanov the Deputy of Lavrov talked about Hezbollah as a regional power. But when the Turkish Foreign Minister called Hezbollah to withdraw from Syria,Lavrov responded that Hezbollah is present under therequest of the Syrian government and its presence is legitimate.
• This time Lavrov said that he hopes that the Americans understand that Hezbollah is playing an important role in the war on ISIS in particular and on the terrorism in general, and that Moscow anticipates for a rational realistic US position toward the role of Hezbollah in this war.
• Before the US-Russian talks where all the complicated and the suspended issues are present Lavrov raises the role of Hezbollah in Syria and in the war on terrorism to the level of constants.
• This is a proof to those who doubt or worry about the kind of the relations between the parties of the alliance that supports the Syrian country and the war on terrorism.
• This is an answer for those who ask about the ability of Turkey and Saudi Arabia to present the presence of Hezbollah on the table.
