The United States of America is engaged in oil production in Syria using equipment imported to circumvent sanctions.


Major General Igor Konashenkov, the official representative of the Ministry of Defense of Russia, issued a statement about this on Saturday.


“Oil extraction is carried out with the help of such equipment, which bypasses all American sanctions,” as “Armenpress” reports, citing “RIA Novosti”, he noted.


Konashenkov reminded that Washington had officially imposed sanctions on the supply of oil products to Syria. Sanctions apply not only to American companies, but also to every other company.
