“Syria is our ally, and we cannot abandon our friends at a time of need.” - V. Putin
“The Russian intervention in Syria is legitimate, and it came at the request of the Syrian government to help us in our war against terrorism. It has changed the course of the war in our favor. The Russian position is based on principles and a deep understanding of the history and the war in Syria. The Russian leadership and the people understand that Syria is on the frontline of a battle against terrorism that could also impact Russia and the world.” - B. Assad
Russia is entering the war in West Asia at Syria’s request after Israel struck the Russian Khmeimim Airbase in Syria.
US reinforced and rearmed its illegal occupation bases in Syria in September, and suspended plans to remove bases from occupied Iraq.
We are very close to direct Russia-US military engagement.
As in Ukraine, Russia will win, allied with Syria and Iraq, squeezing out the US occupiers with pressure from all sides and compromised US resupply logistics.
The era of empire ends in West Asia.
