“The American side refused to jointly appeal the interdepartmental coordinating headquarters of Russia and Syria to organize the return and accommodation of refugees with a request to let transport convoys to the territory of the Al-Tanf zone,” he said.

As emphasized, the United States refused to appeal, despite the successful completion by the Syrian authorities of all prepared measures for the implementation of the export of refugees.

Earlier it became known that the Syrian and Russian military will ensure the safety of the movement of organized columns of buses from the camp "Er-Rukban."

Russia's permanent representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, said it was necessary to evacuate people from the Er-Rukban refugee camp.

On February 27, in a joint statement by the coordinating headquarters of Russia and Syria, they stated that the United States was hindering the exit of refugees from the Er-Rukban camp, spreading false rumors among the population.
