Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday
Russia will never accept the position of Western structures
on the death of Russian medics in Syria.
"I mean big international structures
which have put an equal sign between our medics who have been killed
and those who hit their hospital,
and did it deliberately
as they knew where the medical establishment is located,"
"It is absolutely unacceptable and inadmissible," he stressed. "We will never accept it."
The president thanked the Russian Red Cross Society
which has resolutely condemned the killing of Russian medics in Syria.
"It is absolutely obvious: our medics came there to address absolutely humanitarian tasks,
they arrived there not to take part in combat operations but to help people, the local civilian population," he said.
"I have seen no condemnation of what has happened from any of the big international organizations,"
"Regrettably, it sets us thinking about how unbiased some of our partners are in highlighting the situation."
