The US Secretary of Defense, Ash Carter has claimed that the US and its coalition partners are alone in the fight against ISIS and that Russia has achieved “virtually zero” in Syria. In an interview with NBC, Carter said: “They haven’t done anything…..They came in, they said they were going to fight ISIL, and they said they were going to help in the civil war in Syria.” “They haven’t done either of those things. As a consequence of course, we’re fighting ISIL ourselves” he added.
