Radio Free Europe: Obama Warns Russia Can't 'Bomb Way' To Peace In Syria
U.S. President Barack Obama has warned Russian leaders that they cannot "bomb their way to a peaceful solution" in Syria.
Obama said on October 16 that there had been "no meeting of the minds in terms of strategy" with Russia, which this week staged major assaults on rebel strongholds in Aleppo and Homs in coordination with the Syrian Army and an estimated 2,000 Iranian troops.
Obama said Iran was "just doing more of what they have been doing for the last five years, as is Russia."
"Their basic theory on how to solve Syria has not worked."
