Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) is responding to Russian President Vladimir Putin's op-ed in the New York Times with a column of his own.
McCain will attack Putin in a column in the Russian newspaper Pravda, according to The Cable.
Russian air strikes in Syria have killed over 400 civilians since September this year, monitoring groups say.
The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said the death toll from September 30 - when the strikes were launched - until November 20 stood at 403 civilians, a figure that includes 97 children.
What the bombing has caused
Over 400 civilians killed since September this year, including 97 children.
The Syrian Network for Human Rights puts the figure at at least 526, including 137 children.
Since last October, at least 42,234 air strikes have been documented.
Over 22,370 'barrel bombs' have also been dropped in that period resulting in the death of 6,889 civilians, including 1,436 children, and injuring another 35,000 civilians.
At least 100,000 people have fled from Aleppo, while another 1,000 fled an Atma displaced camp in Idlib's suburbs.
The Syrian conflict has killed at least 250,000 people, according to the UN.
