MOSCOW: The Russian Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday that the US - led coalition against the Islamic state has little to show for itself, a year after its establishment. 'A legitimate question arises - what results have we got from sending into the region military forces of those countries, which are so fond of counting foreign aircraft overflights,' the ministry said in a statement. 'Unfortunately, the achievements of the coalition in the fight against (the Islamic state) look very modest.'
