I know what you mean. But I meant "encouraging" only in the sense that Russia does not plan to confront the US in a military way. In the US right now, there is a lot of speculation that Russia, China, and Iran will try to fight us. There are reports that Russian warships have started massing in the Suez. So, if the Russian article is accurate, it shows that Russia has no intent of intervening militarily.

As for the profits and losses from the tragedy, and the suffering of the Syrian people... that, of course, is sad beyond words.
