BRUSSELS. Jan 29 (Interfax) - New supplies of weapons to Syria provide solid preconditions for supporting terrorists in the region, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
"New supplies of lethal and non-lethal weapons to the Syrian conflict area lay groundwork for supporting terrorists," Lavrov told journalists in Brussels on Tuesday.
"The resumption of supplies of lethal or non-lethal weapons and equipment to this region poses significant additional risks that these weapons could once again fall into the wrong hands," Lavrov said.
Some foreign media outlets reported earlier that the U.S. Congress had approved supplies of small arms to the Syrian opposition.
