Russian newspaper: Losing control over southern Syria - a disgrace to Assad

The Russia Today (RT) website quoted an article from a Russian newspaper that wrote that (losing control over) southern Syria is considered a great shame for the Syrian security regime.

This is especially with the outbreak of demonstrations in the region against it, in light of the continued smuggling of drugs from the region. The regime has controlled the region since 2018, noting that this indicates the unreliability of the regime since the Syrian government has not fulfilled its obligations for which it was returned to the Arab League.

Igor Subbutin wrote an article in the Russian newspaper "Nezavisimaya Gazeta" about the failure of the Syrian regime to fulfill the promises it made to the Arabs, under the title "Syrian smugglers now pose an aerial threat to Jordan".

In the article, according to the author, "Jordan is busy with attempts by Syrian smugglers, the third in a month, to cross the border using drones," and notes that "the fight against drug smuggling, according to the available data, is part of the commitments that the official Damascus had to undertake in order to reintegrate it in the Arab League".

He added that the Syrian regime has not done much in the area of drug control, while Amman has already shown its willingness to launch airstrikes on smugglers' targets, and as the Jordanian media pointed out, Amman may resort to this scenario again.

The writer believed that southern Syria is a great shame for the Syrian security regime despite the return of control over it since 2018, and said, "There is another factor, which is the Druze who are demonstrating against the regime for the second week in a row."

NEWSRAEL: As we have reported previously in NEWSRAEL, the Russian reporter drew attention in his article to the fact that Saudi Arabia has stopped, until now, the process of diplomatic rapprochement with Bashar al-Assad.
