BEIRUT,
LEBANON (9:55 A.M.) – US Defense Secretary James Mattis has vowed
to “confront” Russia, after the top US general in Afghanistan
accused Moscow of arming the Taliban militants, PressTV reported.
“We
continue to get reports of this assistance,” Nicholson said.
“We
support anyone who wants to help us advance the reconciliation
process, but anyone who arms belligerents who perpetuate attacks like
the one we saw two days ago in Mazar-i-Sharif is not the best way
forward to a peaceful reconciliation,” he continued.
A
US military officially claimed that Russia for the last 18 months has
been supplying the Taliban with weapons.
