Moscow, SANA-Russian Foreign Ministry affirmed that Jabhat al-Nusra, however it calls itself, was and still is an illegal terrorist organization, stressing that the fight against terrorist “fanatics” will continue until their complete destruction.<\/p>\n
In a statement on Friday, the ministry said “there is no need to prove that all attempts by terrorists to change their image are futile. Jabhat al-Nusra, however it calls itself, was and still is an illegal terrorist organization that has no other purpose than to create a so-called Islamic caliphate with cruel and barbaric methods.”<\/p>\n
The ministry called for continuing the fight against those terrorists with the support of the international community until eliminating them completely, noting that the terrorist organization of Jabhat al-Nusra was established in January 2012 as a combat unit belonging to so-called ISIS terrorist organization which is also banned in Russia and other countries and then turned to a branch for al-Qaida after it pledged allegiance to this organization.<\/p>\n
The ministry pointed out that the terrorist Abu Mohammad al-Golani the leader of Jabhat al-Nusra thanked in his statement the leaders of al-Qaeda organization for their \u201cunderstanding\u201d as well as their instructions on best ways of \u201cJihad\u201d in the new circumstances.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, the terrorists Abu Mohammad al-Golani pre-empted the arrangements to hold a crucial meeting between Russian and US experts in Geneva to separate groups of so-called \u201cmoderate opposition\u201d and Jabhat al-Nusra terrorist organization by changing the name of the organization and announced it is severing ties with al- Qaeda.<\/p>\n
