Chinese author cites militants fleeing US control zone in Syria

27

An article was published in the Chinese media about the US military presence in Syria. The author in the material on the pages of Sohu writes that if for Syria itself the war that lasts for many years is actually a war for the survival of the country and its people, then for the United States the goal of this war is the same as that which was pursued during the invasion of other countries of the Middle East and North Africa.

Material Author:



This goal is to gain access to resources, primarily oil. Syria has significant hydrocarbon reserves, and the way the United States behaves there today, frankly says that it is Syrian oil that is primarily interested in Washington.

The plot also notes that the States in Syria are now forced to "solve the accompanying problem." Sohu recalls that for the United States, the situation radically changed at the moment when the Russian military came to Syria - at the request of Bashar al-Assad.

From the article:

And now the Americans have to take care of solving the problem of expanding the presence and sphere of influence of Russia in the Middle East.

The author writes that the US’s dreams of a regime change in Syria turned into a “soap bubble”.

From the material:

And now they have the primary task - to remain in Syria, in the oil fields.

The author recalls that Syria is far from the only country where the United States, under the slogan of building democracy, has switched to pumping oil.

At the same time, the Chinese author writes why the militants have recently left the territories controlled by the US military (one of these escapes happened just the other day - a group of militants left the Et-Tanf area and surrendered to the Syrian army, having folded weapon) The material talks about the reason for the flight - the militants hoped the following: with their support for the Americans in the oil fields, they would finance groups through the sale of oil or allow the militants themselves to sell hydrocarbons. But nothing of the kind happens - the proceeds from the smuggling of illegally extracted oil go into the American pocket, which causes outrage from the militants with whom the Americans “flirted”. The militants, who hoped for American funding, were deceived, and therefore decided to leave the zone of American control and surrender weapons, ammunition and radio stations to the SAA.

    The United States, under the banner of building democracy, has switched to pumping oil.
    Siphoning out other people's resources, this is "democracy" in the American way. And the militants are just puppets.

        Syria in terms of proven oil reserves shares the 31/32 place in the world with Uganda and 2,5 billion barrels, which is about 0,1% of the world's reserves.

          Chinese author cites militants fleeing US control zone in Syria

          And so Boris Rozhin (Colonel Cassad) comments on the event:

          A large group of militants from the Revolutionary Commandos gang https://twitter.com/MaghaweirThowra/with_replies escaped from American-controlled At-Tanf in carts and surrendered to the Syrian military in the Palmyra region, transferring small arms, carts and equipment to the military SAA. These fighters have been trained and armed by the CIA and the US military since 2016 on the territory of Jordan.
          The main composition is the former FSA militants, former ISIS militants, deserters from the Syrian army, various mercenaries. The group did not have any great military successes - while still in the "New Syrian Army", they were beaten hard by the igiloids, and then they got it from the Syrians. Since 2017, they have been sitting in At-Tanf (except for those who were transferred by the United States to northern Syria during operations against the Caliphate and taking control of the Al-Shaddadi area).


          The group's page plaintively justifies that in fact it was not heroic fighters against the "bloody Assad regime" who scrambled, but a drug dealer and his family members who could not withstand the "decisive efforts of the group to fight drug trafficking through the American-controlled At-Tanf."
          The people laugh at these explanations, since it turns out that one of the leaders of the group, until recently, organized drug trafficking through At-Tanf, and no one arrested him - neither the Americans nor the militants.

          Best comment: "You had a few hours, but you were only able to come up with pathetic lies. No wonder you can't beat Assad since 2011."

        There are no serious oil reserves there. But for itself it would be enough and would not have to ask Iran for oil. The main value is the export pipeline from Iraq to the coast, which just passes through the desert. This is where the remains of the Igil gangs roam. Plus, from time to time, mattresses are launched from their reservation by militants. Including constant raids and sabotage do not allow to restore the export of Iraqi oil or its purchases for Syria.
        At the same time, there are gas deposits in Syria - both in the desert and on the shelf. And here everything is already more interesting. The Russian company conducted a study and it seems that the offshore field is quite decent. Enough for your own needs and for sale. Moreover, it cannot be ruled out that these deposits on the shelf of Syria and Lebanon are part of one large. And then everything becomes even more interesting.
        On land, deposits are located like this.

    Outraged militants apparently sent a telegram to the Chinese author about this. Yes It’s strange. And why didn’t they call the sportlotto about this glaring fact?

    Invaders never come anywhere in order to give someone something.
    Those who hoped that the Americans would allow them to profit, have long been in the ground, the owner profits by himself.
    But those who surrendered to the authorities may turn out to be "Cossacks" sent in and stab you in the back at any moment.
    Since Afghanistan we have been through this, so we must be on the alert.

    The goal of the Amerzians and Turks was immediately clear. The Erdogan family bought tankers and fuel trucks for this. There was infa that the Erdogans family sold part of the oil to and through Ukraine.

    At least once they would write what oil reserves are in Syria.

    The largest oil and gas fields in Syria are: Al-Omar, where oil production was 2011 barrels per day until 80, At-Tanak in Deir ez-Zor, where 000 thousand barrels of oil per day were produced, Ar-Rumeilan, al-Suwaidiya as well as 40 oil and 1322 gas wells located in the areas of Al Shaddadi, Al Jibsa and Al Ghul in the south of Al Hasakah province. By the way, oil production in the two largest oil and gas regions until 25 amounted to about 2011 thousand barrels per day, that is, about 200% of all oil production in Syria.

    I respect the opinion of the Chinese author. Actually, no less, I respect the opinion of the author of the Eskimo and the opinion of the author from the natives of Australia. However, such articles are simply obliged to cause readers doubts; I have already written about this on the pages of VO more than once.
    Even in the good pre-war times, Syria produced only about 400 thousand barrels of medium-quality oil per day, of which 80% was consumed by itself immediately. (For comparison, Libya produces 1.4 -1.8 million barrels per day, and the entire Middle East produces 28.5 million barrels per day, global consumption up to 89 million barrels per day). U.S. strategic oil reserve only makes up almost 700 million barrels. In other words, this is all Syrian oil to the last drop in 5 (five!) Years of pre-war intensive production. With their cash supply, the United States can feed the whole world for a week. hi

    the militants hoped the following: with their support for the Americans in the oil fields, they would finance groups by selling oil, or they would allow the militants themselves to sell hydrocarbons. But nothing like this happens - proceeds from the smuggling of illegally extracted oil go into the American pocket

    Oil, these are not diamonds. It cannot be put in a pocket, suitcase or even in a container. In order to sell it and earn something on it, you need to get it somewhere, save it in some way, transfer it to something, transfer it somewhere, take it somewhere, sell it to someone, somehow- then get money for it, and if it’s smuggling, somehow wash the money, etc. .... The militants can’t do this by definition. They can fight better or worse, from someone, to take away and appropriate something. Well, aerobatics is the ability to impose tribute to someone. Everything. Point. It follows from the article that the USA itself is already extracting this oil and is already selling it and is already making money on it. But how? request
    Syria has never been a transit hub for oil exports, there are no modernly equipped oil ports, although earlier Iraqi oil was pumped through the pipeline and poured into tankers. Yes, all kinds of banduks poured oil into oil tankers and somewhere (I remember, even to Turkey) sold it in small ways, but this is all rubbish in the general oil flow.

    Oil flows around the world from the Middle East go in three directions: through the Arabian Sea to the Asian market or, bending around Africa with access to the Atlantic Ocean, and the last option - through the Suez Canal and across the Mediterranean to European markets.
    More than 80% of cargo ships that go to the Mediterranean Sea do not even approach the shores of Syria. A few hundred kilometers near the border of Syria there is a large port in Turkey, which unites oil flows from Iraq and Azerbaijan - Ceyhan Oil Terminal, which has a peak load of up to 2 million barrels per day, but actually makes out about 1.1 million barrels per day. Syria, with its oil capabilities, has nothing to do there. hi

    That is, for oil’s sake? Is anyone else taking this bullshit? Is it for the sake of oil that they sell for 2 bucks? This is for the sake of the oil which has nowhere to go in the USA because the oil storage tanks are full? This is for the sake of the oil that the United States produces 12 million barrels. in a day? Seriously, huh?
