In Israel it’s called ‘Yom Sylvester’ because ‘New Year’ indicates Rosh Hashanah.

A draft Syrian ceasefire resolution by Russia and involving Turkey, was approved yesterday by UN Security Council. - https://www.rt.com/news/372381-unsc-russia-syria-resolution/ - maybe Obama sees the UN being irrelevant when it doesn’t suit him?

>>>”When will obama blame the Russians?”<<<

Why would he blame the Russians when he & his minions can get the Islamists give people in Turkey a violent blessing on New Year’s Eve?
