The US goal in Syria is to control all the country's activities in the interests of Israel, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem said in an interview with Interaffairs.

According to the FM, US neither wants Syria to be the main country of resistance to Israel, nor to have strategic relations with Iran and Russia, as it wants Syria to become one of the instruments of US foreign policy with the approval of Israel.

A war has been going on in Syria from 2011. The Iraqi government, as well as Syria and its Russian allies declared ISIS defeated at the end of 2017.  The political settlement and restoration of Syria is at the forefront.
