PNN – The Russian military reporter asked the question, “Syrian army failed to maintain resistance and strength?”, and answered this question as follows: “Shaking whips and eating gingerbread,” this is probably the main reason for such a rapid decline. No one in the army knew what to hold out for.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network from Lenta news site, Alexander Coates believes: Having won a victory (over terrorist groups) at the hands of others, the Syrian authorities continued to acquire wealth and lost their conscience and fear of God Almighty.
This news site further wrote: While Syrians were trying to somehow improve their lives amid the post-war devastation and embargo conditions, Bashar Assad’s relatives were buying luxury houses in Moscow to use their money from leave the country.
This Russian media added: Although Bashar Assad took measures to improve the financial situation of the people; For example, he abolished customs duties and all types of taxes on imported pharmaceutical raw materials, but these measures failed to fundamentally change the situation.

Referring to the developments in Syria in recent years, this Russian news agency wrote: In practice, there was no rush to revive Syria. Most of the young people who can do this were fighting terrorists. In this situation, the electricity of the cities is regularly cut off, the ruins are not rebuilt and even the basic conditions are not provided for the homeless. About 90% of the Syrian population lives in poverty and 52% of the Syrian people do not have access to piped water by 2022.
This Russian media wrote: After the start of Russia’s special operations in Syria, the United States continued to support the Syrian opposition and accused Russia of attacking the areas where the rebels and not the terrorists were based. At the time, Russian experts noted that the Americans were primarily interested in oil reserves, not democracy in Syria.
On Sunday morning, the Syrian armed opposition announced their control over the city of Damascus and the departure of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad from the country.
The al-Mayadeen network reported, quoting Reuters: Armed groups entered Damascus without any sign of the Syrian army.
It has been 54 years since the 1971 coup in Syria that led to Haft al-Assad coming to power. During this period, Syria has always been involved in civil war and fighting against armed groups. Bashar Assad, who became the president of Syria after his father in 2000, was always faced with the threat of armed groups during his rule. Finally, one of these groups called Tahrir al-Sham was able to end the rule of the Assad family.
