Or, perhaps, the West, in its favorite tactics, will follow the well-known tactics of double standards, because Turkey is a member of NATO, and the Westerners do not “digest” the “bad” Assad?

PS Have you heard about the sanctions against Saudi Arabia? The one whose aircraft daily makes 150 sorties to bomb neighboring Yemen? They didn’t hear, and neither did I … So, most likely, it will be …
