Russian Military Presence In Syria Risks "Confrontation" With US-Backed Forces, Kerry Warns Lavrov

Tyler Durden's picture




 

On Friday, Vladimir Putin conceded that the scope of Russian military involvement in Syria is “quite serious.”

In a replay of the Kremlin’s official line regarding Russian involvement in Ukraine, Putin did not admit that his soldiers were on the ground to play a direct combat role.

However, the Russian President’s comments did suggest that Moscow’s logistical and technical assistance goes far beyond the purely “political” cover the Kremlin has granted Assad via Moscow’s Security Council veto. It also suggests that Russia isn’t prepared to accept a Syrian state controlled by a puppet government likely to be sympathetic to Washington and Riyadh. 

Of course the official reason for Moscow’s presence in Syria is the same as the Washington’s: they’re both there, ostensibly, to fight ISIS. 

For those who still do not understand that ISIS has become, as we put it earlier, “a kind of catch-all, go-to excuse for legitimizing whatever one feels like doing,” the situation in Syria can be extraordinarily confusing. For instance, at least one mainstream media outlet was having quite a difficult time on Saturday trying to understand why the US seems so concerned about Russia’s presence in Syria when both sides are supposed to be after the same thing - that is, defeating terrorism. The reason is because both sides are not in fact after the same thing, and neither of which cares too much about what does or doesn’t happen to ISIS unless the group’s fate somehow matters in determining whether a post-civil war Syria is still governed by Assad. In short, ISIS has played its role. The Assad regime is destabilized and Damascus is up for grabs. From here on out, it’s all about whether a coalition comprised of the US, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Qatar ends up in a direct military conflict with Russia and the Assad regime. That would be the geopolitical “main event.” 

Underscoring the above is the alarm with which Russia’s stepped up presence in Syria has been greeted by Washington. Far from being elated that, amid the worst relations between the US and Russia since the Cold War, the two powers are still on the same page when it comes to combating terrorism, Washington is instead worried that the Kremlin is willing to resort to overt military support to shore up Assad’s depleted forces. As a reminder, here’s what the US claims to know (via LA Times):

US intelligence has captured evidence of a significant escalation of Russia's military engagement in Syria's civil war, including satellite images of an apparent Russian base for staging troops and heavy equipment under construction near a port city that is a stronghold for Syrian President Bashar Assad, U.S. officials say.

 

The reconnaissance photos of possible military housing being built near the international airport in Latakia province provides strong evidence of deepening involvement by President Vladimir Putin's government in the four-year-old Syrian war, according to the officials, who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

 

In addition, the Russians have asked at least one country bordering Syria for a window of time to fly a detachment of warplanes over its territory and into Syria, the officials said. The officials would not name the country, but Turkey lies between Russia and Syria.

 

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has been on a diplomatic offensive in recent weeks trying to marshal support for a plan to bring peace to Syria that would include a role for Assad. But those talks with Saudi and other Middle East leaders have failed to win over opponents.

 

The new military buildup could reflect a recognition by the Russians that with those talks going nowhere, Assad needs more help from them.

 

"It's pretty obvious that all the Russian logistics preparation is to do something significant in support of Assad," said Christopher Harmer, a military analyst at the Institute for the Study of War, a nonpartisan public policy group in Washington. "At this point, it's too big to be a misdirection."

“Too big to be a misdirection,” which presumably is why John Kerry jumped on the phone with Lavrov on Saturday. The State Department says "the secretary made clear that if such reports were accurate, these actions could further escalate the conflict, lead to greater loss of innocent life, increase refugee flows and risk confrontation with the anti-ISIL coalition operating in Syria.”


Note that if any of what the State Department says there is true, it’s entirely because John Kerry knows that Russian support will allow the Assad regime to continue to fight for control of the country. That is, if anyone actually believed Russia was there to fight ISIS, then one would think the effect would be to decrease refugee flows and lead to fewer civilian casualties as ISIS’ forces are swiftly defeated. After all, the Soviet experience in Afghanistan notwithstanding, one would certainly think that ISIS isn’t operationally capable of waging an extended ground war against the Russian army (as an aside, it would be ironic - given the Soviet-Afghan war - if the Russians end up mired in a protracted conflict with a CIA-backed group of jihadists). However, what would increase refugee flows, lead to greater civilian casualties, and “further escalate the conflict” is if Russia is simply in Syria to help Assad fight on to the bitter end. In other words, the State Department is tacitly admitting that this has very little (and more likely nothing) to do with ISIS.

Here’s The New York Times with more on what Washington claims to know about Russia’s involvement thus far:

Russia has sent a military advance team to Syria and is taking other steps the United States fears may signal that President Vladimir V. Putin is planning to vastly expand his military support for President Bashar al-Assad of Syria, administration officials said Friday.

 

The Russian moves, including the recent transport of prefabricated housing units for hundreds of people to a Syrian airfield and the delivery of a portable air traffic control station there, are another complicating factor in Secretary of State John Kerry’s repeated efforts to enlist Mr. Putin’s support for a diplomatic solution to the bloody conflict in Syria.

 

The Russians have also filed military overflight requests with neighboring countries through September.

 

American officials acknowledge that they are not certain of Russia’s intentions, but some say the temporary housing suggests that Russia could deploy as many as 1,000 advisers or other military personnel to the airfield near the Assad family’s ancestral home. The airfield serves Latakia, Syria’s principal port city.

 


 

American intelligence analysts are also looking at ship loadings in Russia to determine what might be bound for Syria, and one official speculated that the Russian deployment might eventually grow to 2,000 to 3,000 personnel.

 

“There are some worrisome movements — logistical, preparatory types of things.”

Yes, “preparatory types of things” - the million dollar geopolitical question is this: what exactly are they preparing for?

Girls could attend school for good education, later after outside interferences many of these girls

were killed by Fathers, male relatives for wanting education and basic rights.

Soviet backed very moderate Leader, who was murdered and coup takeover by worst criminals

Soviets controlled and held three times more of country than later invader ever managed with

small fraction of expenditure.

Former Afghan leaders tell the Soviet were much better soldier fighter and not scared to leave

This makes perfect sense. Assad and Russia are preparing a stronghold for Assads supporters while giving up control of around 2/3 of Syria proper. They know they can't take back and control Syrian borders. So they are preparing the stronghold to create a mini Syria with Russian bases and Assads minority population and secular Arabs to have a defensible territory. Russia can arm Assad inside this area to be pretty much untouchable. The section of coast line is vital for the Russian naval base, for a naval airfield, and for anti shipping missiles. Russian S-300 and TOR M2 anti aircraft missiles will make air attacks costly. I see this mini Syria as a sensible solution for both Russia, Assad & his people, and for Christian and secular Arabs from across Syria. This would give the USA no chance to crush Assad, and eject Russia from Syria. Look for this to be the logical move from here on it.

A pro Russian rump Syria with Russian Naval and Airbase, plus modern AA systems to protect them. And anti shipping missiles to keep the US Navy hundreds of miles out to sea.

They will find out soon enough they are NOT above the Supreme Law of Cause and Effect.

By using Black Sea, Bulgaria, Greece and the Mediterranean, Russia would have an air supply route that avoids Turkey, but only if that became necessary.  Russia has been negotiating alternate gas pipeline routes through Turkey, so there is no reason for the Turks to block Russian flights.

...so there is no reason for the Turks to block Russian flights.

Have to disagree RM. Turks support ISUS. Their supply lines run from Turkey. Russia and Syria do not.

Now your fucking Kiev Nazi buddies deadbeats won't pay but have also been stealing gas.

Russia doesn't have to sell gas to Europe.   there is no law that says they have to.  

So why doesn't europe just buy it somewhere else?

OK, wtf is going on?  Natzi's joining NATO in Ukraine, the U.S. mad about Russia helping out with ISIS, Chinese battleships chillin' off the coast of Alaska.  Sounds to me like we are about to get our asses handed to us by Russia and China, if you ask me.  Was this part of the plan all along, the last decade of NATO poking the bear has not roused it from its slumber, until now.  I understand that we have been mucking around in the Middle East for the sole purpose of destabilization, because that is how you insert a governemnt that will give you what you want, that's what we have done to most of South America.  So, we finally lure Russia into war, find some obscure reason to be mad at them, continue destabilization of the Middle East and move to all out war on Russia and its ally Chiina?  IDK, but its kind of the only way I can seem to make sense of this freaking mess as far as long term goals are concerned.  Or maybe we are all really on the same side and everyone is just obsessed with spattering blood and the misery of others.  Either way it's disgusting.

Open Letter to AlfredNEuman

Dear Mr Neuman. You have now posted 115 posts on this article, each more devoid of any useful information than the last, yet oddly marinated in utter crap. The only kind of people who have the time to post such a gigantic a deluge of utter shite on an article about Russia are fools and shills. 

I may be the only person to comment directly on you, but I assure you, thousands of people sense what you do, and why, sat at your desk, wherever you are, trying to twist the fate of the world. And while we are disconnected, I can aussure you we think of you.

So much for General Allen the "ISIS Csar" and his plans for a no fly and refuge zone for the American Empire-Central Bankers cabal foreign fuckheads called al Nusra or ISIL or whatever. The Turks will have to quit going after the Kurds and the Kurds will close off the primary logistics supply route for ISIS, a fifty mile stretch of the Syrian-Turkish border where Allen's safe zone is-was to be located. The Israelis will have to stop their bombing runs as when ever they have felt like it if the Russians send some System 300 missiles to Assad's forces. As the America Central Bankers cabal escalates the war against Assad-Hezbollah-Shia Iraq and of course Iran the Russians will simply harden the opposition. Look for some Ameropire fighter pilot deaths in the interests of western central bankers as the Shia forces and Kurds now begin a final pushback on ISIS.

Please note that this entire situation is due to an alleged news story from YNET (Israeli source) and that there has been no confirmation by ANY intelligence service! That once again, the United States asserts to have information / knowledge of another nation's actions / intentions derived from non-govermental / non-intelligence sources!    Tail wagging the dog so let the missles fly!
