The scenario Syrian
The
debut of the Russians in the conflict in Syria is taking place in a
soft, sort of Crimea Asian, but that seems to presage developments more
different. Moscow
has never denied support to Assad, but until now had kept away from the
conflict, in homage to its strategy in foreign policy, which prohibits
interference in the affairs of a foreign state. This principle can, however, be overcome if the Kremlin identifies direct interests for their own strategies. Some
cases of the Crimea and eastern Ukraine are very different, because at
that moment Moscow considered them, and considers areas of exclusive,
for geopolitical reasons and for the presence of citizens of Russian
origin; We
can not say the same of Syria as a whole, but only for the base of
Tartus, which is the only Russian naval landing in the Mediterranean. From
the strategic point of view the presence of the naval fleet for Moscow
is a point on which no compromise: in spite of all the movements
determined by the new world balance, the Mediterranean Sea is still a
central point in the foreign agriculture policies of states that aspire
to play a role prominent in international politics. But
only this aspect is not just a commitment that seems destined to become
important and lets on direct involvement in person in a war that
threatens to haunt the Kremlin leadership. The
central point is that Russia fears a rise to power in the country
Syria, once, somehow you were able to eradicate the Islamic state, by
the US-backed secular formations. This
change, if it occurs, from the scenery which is very far for the
serious delay of military training of the militia which Washington
assists, would shift influence on Syria, Russia and Iran to the West. The
problem for those who must go to the support of the Syrian village that
is able to form in the future is becoming increasingly evident as time
goes on, in a general situation that appears to be characterized by all
against all, a factor that continues to encourage control territory by the caliphate. The
evolution of the situation in Syria can find a variety of stakeholders
to affect more or less directly to Syria, considered essentially
regional strategic balance. Assad
is the first figure in this context, out of hand, a situation from
which he could get out in a dignified manner, loosening the iron grip on
the country through concessions attenuated agriculture policies that
would allow him to retain power and avoid the carnage that is going on for four years; then
there are the Sunni countries, Turkey and Saudi Arabia, for the first,
who tried to take advantage of the civil war from the start, helping the
fundamentalist militia, who then have escaped their control by becoming
an Islamic state. The intentions of the Sunni countries were to subtract the country to Iranian influence in Syria. Despite
being allies of the United States they have played and, to some extent
continue to play a game whose goal is very distant from that of the
White House, Ankara, for more uses war to the caliphate to adjust their
accounts with Kurdish fighters. The
latter, too, US allies, pear trees which have so far done the job on
the ground, waiting for the reward of the establishment of a sovereign
Kurdish nation. They have been betrayed by permit and US silence that preceded the bombing of their positions by the Turks. Iran is the main ally of Assad and the one most interested in the situation does not change policies; It
has committed itself from the beginning with its auditors in the
repression of the democratic uprising and later against the Islamic
fundamentalist Sunni Islamic state. In
part it has already failed in its objective of maintaining Assad
control over all of Syria, but it was crucial to prevent its only final
exit. Russians
have already been discussed, there are only France and the United
Kingdom, that, urged by the problem of refugees trying to enter the
conflict without a proper view, however, that is a common factor to all
stakeholders. For
the past remain the United States, characterized by political
uncertainty, without a general plan on Syria, they proceeded to attempts
result of improvisation, which have not reached any RESULT OF relief. Obama's
foreign policy has been weak, but Syria has been anything but a
statesman, merely a role totally out of scale for the importance of the
United States. It
remains true, however, that could not count on reliable allies ele
United Nations itself have been unsuccessful in dealing with the Syrian
issue. These
divisions, which were to be set aside to combat terrorism, have
fostered the advance of the Islamic state and the escape of biblical
Syrian civilians, forced to suffer grief, violence, famine and serious
health situations, the behavior immediately from all sides involved. Now
it seems that the urgency is more important to defeat the caliphate and
it gives back to Assad the real possibility of being identified as a
lesser evil and therefore allows him to continue to play a political
role in Syria. If
this approach is understandable, it is also true that means postponing a
problem that more concrete because the presence of Assad will make
impossible the pacification of Syria, that risk to be in a constant
state characterized by a lack of internal balance. In
this case applies more than ever the diplomatic solution, to reach a
compromise between all the international actors who helped create the
civil conflict in Syria. Without
some form of agreement where everyone will have to give up something
you will endanger regional stability somewhere in the world that is too
important to find its equilibrium not to affect the world.
