Syrian War: American Interests and Regional Dynamics

    The study aims to reflect the complex Syrian civil war that has now become a proxy war costing lives of thousand and displacing millions of civilians. The war was just another conflict of the Arab Spring Revolutions in 2010 but today, it has become a battlefield for many local, regional, and extra-regional powers. The qualitative study for this article is to find out varied information concerning all the active blocks including Pro-Assad, Anti-Assad, and Non-Aligned forces. The United States has shown substantial support to the rebellions who are already geared to topple Bashar-al-Assad’s regime. The study reveals that the United States acquire several strategic interests in battling the Syrian conflict. This document tries to examine important foreign policies that shaped this modern-day war. The Superpower, United States of America has always been greatly concerned with the fate of Middle East for several decades, however, its intervention in Syria worsened the conflict beyond imaginations.
