Le Figaro: Russia became the main judge and conductor in Syria

65
A large French publication Le Figaro publishes material in which he gives his assessment of what is happening in Syria. The article says that the situation in this Middle Eastern country is looking more and more confused.

Le Figaro: Russia became the main judge and conductor in Syria




From the material:

Turkey, the USA, Russia, Iran, and a number of European NATO countries managed to participate in various operations in Syria today and partially participate.

It is noted that the "most important losers" to date remain the Kurds.

Le Figaro writes that the Kurds helped defeat ISIS (* a terrorist group banned in Russia), but today they are left without their main allies - the United States.

Recall that in one of his tweets today, Donald Trump said that he did not intend to defend either the Kurds or the Syrian border militarily, as “events unfold over 7 thousand miles from the United States,” and added that anyone can support : "Russia, China or Napoleon Bonaparte."

The French newspaper writes that in this confusing situation, the role of the Russian Federation is more clearly manifested. The author calls Russia "the chief conductor in Syria since the 2015 of the year."

Le Figaro:

Russia gradually acquired the role of conductor due to its ability to negotiate with all participants in the process. In 2016, the rapprochement between Vladimir Putin and Recep Erdogan led to a real turn in the conflict, allowing Moscow to negotiate within the Astana format. In practice, the Russians are judges in Syria - between Damascus, Tehran and Ankara.

The same material recalls that several hundred French commandos continue to remain in northern Syria (admitted to this at the Champs Elysees the day before). The author of the material in Le Figaro writes that after the withdrawal of the American contingent from the north of Syria, French troops lost not only military support, but also supplies that were provided through the Americans. At the same time, the withdrawal of American troops is called the withdrawal "in a fire and scattered version."

Recall that today the Western press published material in which it declared the transfer by the Americans of control over the Syrian Manbij to the Russian military police.

        Syria has been a source of great victories for Himself for too long; now you can’t just take and write off it. Suddenly the electorate grumbles again on the subject of falling salaries and police lawlessness? And then he once - and a new race about how our brave falcons unwrapped the next portion of barmaley across the desert. And everyone is immediately happy.

        I disagree. IMHO just in this case Assad and Russia win. It is now clear that Trump is certainly a Russian agent. Why? First, the Kurds are strictly instructed not to fornicate. And then they change allies like gloves. The hegemon promised them independence from Syria. And in an incredible leap, the Kurds changed their shoes, and now they have always believed that their best friend is America. But then one day Trump woke up, ruled the country on Twitter and thought, why don't I care about these Kurds, just spending and called VVP. Listen Volodya I'm tired of these Kurds - take it for yourself. Secondly, but here Erdogan spoke. He was not averse to making the Kurds a sekim-head on the sly and sent his tanks at them. But then the whole "tolerant" humanity rebelled - began to confess its love to the Kurds and accuse Erdogan, such as a sanction-sanction. But our brawler answered them, and now I will unleash a horde of refugees on you - you will know - to your feet. But the brave Europeans answered - we will still sting you. As a result, everyone is stranded. And then Assad appears in a white tailcoat. It gets itself strategically important territories. Europe breathes a sigh of relief. The Kurds claim that they have realized that now their best friend is Russia, and there are 100 million Kurds in the world and they arrange terrorist attacks no worse than ISIS, that Russia is bad. .. The US is withdrawing its troops and no longer muddying up. Erdogan catches ISIS with relief. Like everyone is happy

          Soon the election of the head of the white house. All this is for the most part for the internal electorate. Nothing, will not raise the rating, since the end of the war, with a victory, moreover, begun by the Democrat on the spot. Throughout the TV, the joyful return of soldiers, reunion with families, interviews with brave soldiers, etc.
          And for everyone, everything was agreed upon by the United States, Turkey, Russia, so that there wouldn’t be a house, although the French were under distribution.
          But the Kurds are just a consumable, they marched and left.

And this means that the next Caucasian war is not far away.

            control over Syria is very important strategically

            First, what is important for? To fight the terrorists? So this is nonsense: they, terrorists, where only now they do not produce. Health is not enough to control everything at the proper level.

            Secondly, where is this control? Russia is physically unable to transfer enough forces to Syria to seriously control something.

                The naval base alone cannot control anything. The troops control, and the degree of control is directly proportional to their strength and equipment.
                The large contingent is beyond our means, the small will only create the illusion of control, nothing more. I don’t even raise the question of expediency: you are unlikely to explain how this abstract information "from all over the Arabian half-ove, the South of Turkey and the Western Mediterranean" it will be so useful to us to recoup the costs of participating in the conflict.

                    A radar without an army, even in the right place, is a fiction. They will put a jammer in front of him, and there is no your intelligence. Or the natives will spoil it regularly, like the Saudi refineries.

Even this alone justifies our presence, it was not in vain that the staff were so grieving against the S-400 in Turkey, and even the sale of our systems in the future Arab countries will pay off, plus showing our weapons in business, won’t get patriots in Saudi Arabia, and on Khmeinim almost every month a drone raids s, so to speak, we show and advertise our product, such an advertisement is worth a lot.

          I will expand my thought for minus (I expected there will be a lot of them). In Syria, we are not at all out of fear of some hypothetical beard, supposedly capable of setting fire to the Caucasus after returning from Syria - this is fierce delirium. They can ignite now, and they could even before Syria. And the fight against them is not carried out by bombing a distant country, but by special measures of the special services inside Russia. And we are in Syria for a number of more prosaic reasons. We are building ourselves an outpost in the most important region of the planet - the Mediterranean. An outpost from which it is convenient to conduct reconnaissance and rely on the Navy, and to build up its political influence as an arbiter on the world stage, and to promote the interests of its business. And of course, this war has, in addition to these good goals, less noble "show-off" to the world that post-Soviet Russia "can" do something, and at the same time supports Putin's authority among conservative-minded citizens. The Syrian operation is relatively easy and allows for a lot of profit, for Russia as a whole, and for Putin personally. But Ukraine is difficult. Very difficult. There are no simple solutions - to go in and bomb the muddy bearded men with a beautiful picture on TV will not work, but you can get in to the full. Therefore, to untie the Ukrainian knot for Russia is not an achievable task today, and this is a great pain for us, and a big problem. Syria is useful, but not necessary. And Ukraine is inevitable, but the decision is postponed. So there is absolutely nothing to be happy about.

          The answer to this question is very simple. We are legally in Syria (Assad called), and if we invade Ukraine, then this will be aggression against an independent country. We will be devoured by the whole world without a snack (sanctions by UN decision, expulsion from the UN Security Council, and direct military assistance to Ukraine from around the world). It was easier with Crimea, it was an Autonomous Republic and could hypothetically decide for itself, which happened. And the Donbass is just a region of Ukraine and it won’t do that.

            So figure it out ..
            In our private sector, it’s like the central sewage system is extended .. yeah ..
            Is this the same rotting Europe that everyone is trying to cross into, from African migrants to Russian deputies ?? And then maybe we are talking about something different ..
            That Europe, which somewhere finds money for gas and oil, and for forest and for other things ?? The one with whom we drive all this, and with which we get the loot ??
            Well, after this, even if there will be no sewage at all in Europe, it’s excusable to them .. because they understand where they spend money .. And where do we spend our money and the money we take from Europe .. also into the sewers, it seems. .

            Swept the world. Where it is warm, beggars lie right on the sidewalks. Where it is cold, in Russia, for example, beggars lie in basements and in attics. About centralized sewage in schools, nonsense. Why lie?
            He worked for the American company CBI, built a large gas plant in Longford. Two drops of rain, everyone should leave work until it dries. Air temperature 35 and above, work stops. All disperse from the cabins or go home. Somehow they discussed the state of emergency. Spilled 15 milliliters of oil on the ground. It seems ridiculous, but an indicator of how the company relates to the environment.
            Familiar with the homeless. They are homeless at will. They do not want or cannot work because of drugs or vodka.

        Russia in Syria is not for helping Assad, we are there to reduce the number of ISIS people coming from our own country.

        Fairy tales for children. Russia is there to control resources and weaken the influence of NATO.

    Interestingly, the frogmen will abandon their special forces there or will agree with us on evacuation. Imagine the picture: the mattresses, leaving everything behind, and screaming, shout to the dead French - For now, baby! I will call you! wassat

    As far as I know, the Kurds were exposed to rather harsh conditions. There is no longer any question of any "broad autonomy". They will disarm and disband, with a partial infusion into the CAA.

    The author calls Russia "the chief conductor in Syria since 2015."
    Well, they have already received compliments, though after they finally realized that, in addition to chaos, the coalition led by the Americans brought nothing to this region. The Americans refused to help the Kurds forced them to agree with Assad, suggesting that they would jointly oppose the Turks. Indeed, everything is so intertwined and mixed up that soon even BV specialists will cease to understand who is fighting with whom and against whom.

    At the same time, the withdrawal of American troops is called the withdrawal "in a fire and scattered version."

    If so, the Americans threw not only the Kurds, but also the French. It is not known how serious the position of the French commandos is, but now, in my opinion, it is time for Macron to call the GDP. And here, as they say, the torus is appropriate!

      This is not the first time for mericatos, and I hope, not the last time, to throw my allies. And the French for them, the campaign, no one at all.

        Yes exactly. Nothing personal just business.

        I just liked the statement (if it really is): "In a fire and scattered version" Those. Figaro actually lowers the Americans below the baseboard, drapanuli type, already sparkled heels!

          Mericatos will betray anyone for greens.
          And the fact that Figaro so called the actions of the mericatos is strongly diplomatic. In fact - flight. see below my comets

    For the French, a "confused situation" is when a country ceases to be a colony and can independently negotiate something without the French. Here the "white man" begins to misunderstand.
    Now Russia will help make the situation even more confusing. But only for the French.
