Russia plans a new Middle East
What is going on in the Arab region? And where are the Arabs? Is what is happening today taking place in coordination with them, or are they the last to know? What is happening is saddening, saddening and saddening because the Arab reality has given all its cards to others, as if it is asking for liquidating the Arab governments and desecration of the Arab nation in a way that calls for bemoaning a nation that gave up all its political papers to others.
The nation had differences, so it could not solve its disputes in a peaceful manner as Islam asks for - rather it got shredded to groups and sects, while each group depended on foreign powers. And because foreign policy does not know emotions and acts through its interests and strengthening its influence, the Arab arena has become a field for international struggles.
Instead of having foreign powers act alone in drawing the Middle East future, Russia was able to put a foot in the region, because of the West’s mistakes and arrogance, who clumsily bet on extreme religious powers to be the spearheads to topple Arab governments, only to be surprised that they could not be trusted, and that they turn on everyone when they see the time is right for them.
Russia, in cooperation with Syria, was able to form an alliance through which the Syrian state is helped to get rid of the armed groups, especially those that are considered terrorist movements according to Security Council resolutions. The Russian role has become stronger following the latest Paris explosions, which Daesh claimed responsibility for.
Today, following the meeting of international decision makers in Austria, and their decision to eradicate terrorist movements that have a religious direction, especially in Syria and Iraq, they once again strengthened the Russian role in Syria, which may expand to Iraq, Lebanon and Libya, which will give the Russians and their allies an important role in having influence on the future image of the region.
It is now clear that Arab countries will see a new reality in the coming days that is built on new political formulas that relies on several facts, including, the major powers getting closer in forming their new interests, recognition of the Russian role by the West and giving it a role in the coming political movement, monitoring the areas that are financing the expiatory movements to hold them accountable and dry up their resources, change the Arab roles according to the new international view, which the Russians are seeking to make them come out with an international resolution that may embarrass some Arabs and comfort others. It is a new scenario to adjust the Western path, which was alone in drawing the region’s future, so Russia and its allies will have a share in the Arab reality, which its people wasted due to their differences and inability to find solutions.
