Pashayan: Israeli-Syrian tension unlikely to escalate into war
Tuesday,
May 14
`The current situation in Syria can be described as a crisis, but I
think the tension in Israeli-Syrian relations is unlikely to escalate
into a war,' Ms. Arax Pashayan, an expert in Oriental studies, told
the correspondent of Aysor.am.
In her words, the Bashar Assad regime has always implemented a
moderate and balanced policy on Israel.
`The latest development related to Israel's bombing of Syria may only
increase tension, but I think this tension is unlikely to escalate
into war,' A. Pashayan noted.
Commenting on the developments within Syria, she expressed an opinion
that Bashar Assad will be able to retain power in the near future so
it is too early to speak about his regime's overthrow.
`The national security of Syria has notably weakened because of the
military situation,' the expert stressed. In her opinion, the
religious, ethnic and ideological differences among various opposition
forces will make it hard for Syrian opposition to unite.
`I don't think that against the backdrop of the current differences,
the Syrian opposition will achieve success in terms of unification and
the formation of an alternative government,' Pashayan noted.
