Clinton Vows to Push for No-Fly Zone in Syria
TEHRAN (Basirat)- Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton said during the third presidential debate with Republican rival Donald Trump on Wednesday night that she will keep on insisting on establishing no-fly zone in Syria to gain leverage on Damascus and Moscow.
"I am going to continue to push for a no-fly zone and safe heaves
within Syria not only to help protect the Syrians and prevent the
constant outflow of refugees, but to frankly gain some leverage on both
the Syrian government and the Russians that perhaps we can have the kind
of the serious negotiations necessary to bring the conflict to an end
and go forward on political track," Clinton stated.
Clinton claimed that a no-fly zone could hasten the end of conflict in Syria, but the United States would have to clearly communicate to Russia the purpose of the strategy being the establishment of safe areas on the ground.

Shortly before the debate, Clinton’s campaign office said in a
press release that Donald Trump would support the Russian-backed
military operation in Syria if he is elected to be the next president of
the United States.
