The United States is not interested in fighting terrorist groups in Syria and has attempted to find ways to support extremist militants in the country, a political activist in Damascus says.

Senior US officials are not sincere in their public statements and say one thing while doing the opposite, Afraa Dagher told Press TV on Thursday.

The US is also not serious in cooperating with Russia to end the 4-year-long conflict in Syria, Dagher said.

“The USA has been trying to destabilize Syria and topple our president since 2011,” she noted.

Russia launched its air campaign against terrorists in Syria on September 30. The US has also been carrying out its own airstrikes in Syria, allegedly pounding Daesh positions inside the country.

However, observers have long said that while the US and its allies claim they are fighting against terrorist groups like Daesh (ISIL), they in fact helped create and train those organizations to advance their policies in the Middle East.

The CIA began its covert operation in 2013 to arm, fund and train terrorists to overthrow the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

However, the covert program has floundered for years, so much so that some lawmakers in Congress proposed cutting its budget.

Since 2013, the CIA has trained approximately 10,000 terrorists. The effort was separate from a failed US military program to train “moderate” militants to supposedly fight the Daesh (ISIL) terrorist group.

That $500 million Pentagon program is widely considered a failure, and on Friday, the US Defense Department announced it was abandoning those efforts and instead opting to arm existing groups to fight Daesh.

On Wednesday, US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter threatened Russia, saying the US will take all necessary steps to counter Moscow's “malign influence” in Syria.
