Syria: Purchases planes from Russia

Russia has apparently signed a contract to sell combat jets to Syria
in a show of support for President Bashar Assad's regime. The
$550-million deal ensures the delivery of 36 Yak-130 aircraft. If
confirmed, the deal would mark an open defiance of international
efforts to put pressure on Assad's regime. Russia's Foreign Minister
Sergey Lavrov said that Moscow doesn't consider it necessary to offer
an explanation or excuses over suspicions that a Russian ship had
delivered munitions to Syria despite an EU arms embargo. Russia has
been a strong ally of Syria since Soviet times when the country was
led by the president's father Hafez Assad. It has supplied Syria with
aircraft, missiles, tanks and other modern weapons. The Yak-130 is a
twin-engined combat trainer jet that can also be used to attack ground
targets.

Russians are having hard time losing another Arab dictator; it is not easy any more for them to find another son of a bitch who is willing to buy their outdated military junk to use it on his own people.
