    US EXPERT: FEAR OF FAILURE - THIS IS WHAT HOLDS US FROM STRIKING SYRIA

    The situation around Syria develops. It is not clear even whether the
    United States will make limited strikes on Syria or not, Cory Welt,
    Associate Director and Associate Research Professor of International
    Affairs at the Institute for European, Russian and Eurasian Studies
    (IERES) at the Elliott School, told ArmInfo.

    "If this happens, I don't think that Iran will give any serious
    response. Caucasus neighbors that region and the population there may
    have concerns over aftermaths of a possible military operation against
    Syria. However, I think,the threat is not close yet. Anyway, Armenians,
    for instance, have already felt that conflict given the big Armenian
    population in Syria. It would be good if the western governments
    had a full image of Syria's future, though they are interested in
    preservation of Syria's territorial integrity," Welt said.

    He thinks that no one in the United State plans land-based military
    operation against Syria. The operation the US weighs will be more like
    the bombing campaign in Bosnia and will be more aggressive than the
    one in Lybia. This does not mean, however, he said, that the US will
    be satisfied with the results of that operation. "Fear of failure -
    this is what holds the US from acting. There is no chance that the
    United States will occupy Syria," Welt concluded. Joint online press
    conference of experts from various countries for Armenian, Azerbaijani
    and Georgian mass media on the relevant problems are organized within
    the project "Expansion of knowledge of Armenians and Azerbaijanis about
    each other and confidence building through first-hand information".

    The project of the "Region" Research Center (Armenia) and Peace and
    Democracy Institute (Azerbaijan) is supported by the British Embassies
    in Armenia and Azerbaijan.
