Since the recent period, the United States, Britain, France, and other Western countries have suddenly launched a missile attack on Syria’s military and civilian facilities in the name of Syria’s “chemical warfare” issue, causing the international community to be upset. The U.S. coalition’s missile strike was very obvious. It was the Syrian government forces and Russia behind it. As a result, the US-Russian confrontation once again put on the table. However, the U.S. side has not only failed to reflect on the negative effects of this attack, but on the contrary. The behavior of the war was greatly exaggerated. According to a report by the Russian Satellite News Agency on April 19, U.S. President Trump said that the U.S. and Russian troops stationed in Syria a few weeks ago had had "a fierce exchange of fire."

The news was disclosed by U.S. television stations at the press conferences that relayed Trump and Shinzo Abe. Trump said without hesitation at the press conference that there was a fierce exchange of fire between U.S. and Russian troops in Syria a month ago. , and stated that many people were killed in this battle. In addition to supporting his previous statements, Trump also responded to reports from the American media. The implication is that the US-Russia battle has taken place. No need to avoid it.

According to media reports by the U.S. Middle East Observer website and other media quoted Syrian military sources as saying that there were indeed a number of Russian mercenaries who lost their lives in U.S. large-scale air strikes, and these mercenaries were basically all Russian military combat troops. The veterans are seen as the most crucial factor in the most capable Russia’s ability to defeat Syria in the most successful way. There is no doubt that Trump’s display of achievements on various occasions is nothing more than saying that U.S. military power is strong and Russian troops are unbearable. Hit, and further blow the morale of the Russian army.

In response, Zharalova, spokesman of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, directly denied that the Russian military’s death in the U.S. military’s attack on Syria was false news. Zaharova’s move was in fact a total denial of Trump’s claim. The Russian side denied having military personnel killed in the US military strike. It also reflected Russia’s prudence in the fierce confrontation between Russia and the United States. It did not rule out mercenaries as not understanding the military in order to evade the risk of a direct military conflict between the Russian and US military. This approach by the Russian side is similar to that of the U.S. Chief of Defense Matisse.
