RT: Russia has ‘more proof’ ISIS oil routed through Turkey, Erdogan says he’ll resign if it’s true
Russia has received additional intelligence confirming that oil from deposits controlled by Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) goes through Turkey on an industrial scale, President Vladimir Putin said speaking on the sidelines of the climate change summit in Paris.
Moscow has grounds to suspect that the Su-24 was downed by Turkish jets on November 24 to secure illegal oil deliveries from Syria to Turkey, he said.
“At the moment we have received additional information confirming that that oil from the deposits controlled by Islamic State militants enters Turkish territory on industrial scale,” he said.
“We have every reason to believe that the decision to down our plane was guided by a desire to ensure security of this oil’s delivery routes to ports where they are shipped in tankers,” Putin said.
WNU Editor: On the day that the Russian military jet was shot-down I had mentioned in this blog that I found it to be quite a coincidence that this happened a few days after Russia began bombing the Islamic State's oil facilities and tanker trucks in Syria. Is there a Turkey - ISIS link over oil .... I do not know. But that oil has to be going somewhere, and since the neighbouring states of Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan are not interested in this oil .... one can only guess it has to be going to Turkey.
