Foreign Policy In 140 Characters Or Less: US Ambassador Tweets Warning To Russia

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-10-02/foreign-policy-140-characters-or-less-us-ambassador-tweets-warning-russia

For anyone who might still be confused as to what the official position of the US and its allies is with regard to Russian military operations in Syria, you’re in luck because Washington - in conjunction with Berlin, Paris, London, Doha, Ankara, and of course Riyadh - is now tweeting out foreign policy.

We present the following from the US ambassador to the UN with no further comment other than to note that we are glad to see that countries who most certainly are not currently conducting any kind of overt or covert military operations in Syria are standing tall in the face of Russian “aggression”...

We call on #Russia to immediately cease attacks on Syrian oppo & civilians & to focus on ISIL pic.twitter.com/61zw3h9qd7
