Russia intends to transfer its troops from Syria to Ukraine - Reuters

A representative of the Turkish special services told reporters that the Russian Federation had already started withdrawing individual military units from the country. In the future, it is planned to be sent to Ukraine. However, the Kremlin intends to maintain their political influence in the Middle East. To do this, the Kremlin suggested Rezhep Tayip Erdogan to normalize relations with Turkish President Bashar Assad. This should be accelerated by the "political decision" in Syria.

"Russia wants Syria and Turkey to overcome their problems and achieve some arrangements for the benefit of all - both Turkey and Syria," - commented on the negotiations a high -ranking Turkish official. According to the publication, Turkey and Russia have agreed that they are afraid of increased Iranian influence in Syria in the event of exit from the Russian troops.

Moreover, Moscow has already removed part of its military contingent from the country, including border with Israel, and then immediately took the place of Proiranian forces. At the same time, the main obstacle in the negotiations between Turkey and Syria can be the desire to connect Syrian rebels to them, which in Damascus do not intend to allow. Civil War in Syria has been going on since 2011. In 2015, Russia supported President Bashar Assad and introduced its contingent into the country.

In February 2022, Assad supported a full -scale invasion of Ukraine. In 2011, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan supported revolutionary movements in Tunisia, Egypt and Syria. He called Assad himself a terrorist. Until recently, the rapprochement of Ankara and Damascus seemed impossible. However, in the last few months, Erdogan has changed his rhetoric about Syria. We will remind, in the UN warned about a possible Great War in the Middle East.
