In a significant address, President Biden announced the fall of the Al-Assad regime in Syria, marking the end of a half-century rule. He attributed this change to the weakened support from Iran, Hezbollah, and Russia, which have been major backers of Assad. The President emphasized that the collapse of these supports was due to strategic international pressures, including sanctions and military actions, which have degraded their capabilities. Biden highlighted the historic opportunity for Syria to rebuild and transition to a more democratic and inclusive governance structure. He outlined the U.S. commitment to working with international partners to support Syria's transition, ensuring stability, and preventing the resurgence of ISIS. The U.S. plans to engage with all Syrian groups, support neighboring countries, and maintain a military presence to protect against threats. Biden also stressed the importance of humanitarian aid and the need for Syrian-led efforts to establish a new government. The address underscores a pivotal moment for Syria and the broader Middle East, with potential for significant geopolitical shifts.
