The leader of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia Vladimir Zhirinovsky called for Moscow to carry out “retaliatory strikes” against the U.S. in response to the Trump administration’s air strike on Syria, asserting the chemical weapons incident was a “provocation in advance” to justify the U.S. air strike and that the gas attack was staged by jihadist rebels. Agreement that Russian and U.S. fighter planes would not target each other over Syrian airspace has been cancelled, Zhirinovsky calling for Russian long range surface-to-air missile systems to cover the entire country more warships to be sent to the region demanded that Moscow declare partial mobilization and put its strategic missile forces in a state of high combat readiness demanding “retaliatory strikes” be carried out against U.S. armed forces in Syria “if they continue aggressive actions” against Syrian troops or Bashar Al-Assad.

According to Syrian media sources, the Russian government has taken measures to guarantee more security for its forces in case of possible attack regarding the recent U.S. Tomahawk air strikes on the Shayrat air base on April 7. Russian jets capable of spotting and intercepting cruise missiles are in the Eastern Mediterranean. Russian forces are ready to carry out retaliatory strikes on U.S. ships that launch cruise missiles if they attack Russian military objects (including Khmeimim and Tartus bases). Russian military advisors have arrived at the Syrian bases equipped with the anti-aircraft defense systems to assist Assad’s forces to counter cruise missiles strikes.
