The US goal is to split Syria, said Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
His remarks came at a press conference after meeting with the OSCE Chair-in-Office, Slovak Foreign Minister Miroslav Lajcak.
According to him, the US task of restoring the Syrian sovereignty and territorial integrity is merely a manoeuvre.
"Their goal now is becoming more and more obvious - to split Syria and create a quasi-state on the eastern coast," Lavrov said.
