Syria may be weeks away from the potential collapse of the transitional power and a “comprehensive civil war”

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned on Tuesday that Syria may be weeks after the civil war, days after his meeting with its transitional leaders.

“Our evaluation is that the transitional authority, frankly, in light of the challenges it faces, may be weeks away – not several months – from a possible collapse and a comprehensive civil war with devastating dimensions, actually leading to the division of the country,” Rubio said before the Senate’s hearing.

Rubio’s comments came after attacks that killed the Alawite and Druze minorities in Syria, where armed groups in December toppled Bashar al -Assad in a kidnapped attack after a violent civil war began in 2011.

US President Donald Trump announced during his visit to Saudi Arabia last week to lift the sanctions imposed since the era of Assad, and the Syrian transitional President Ahmed al -Shara, who was the leader of the Headquarters for the Liberation of Al -Sham, met the attack of Assad.

The Sharia that Trump praised his toxicity, until recently on the list of wanted persons for the United States for his relationship with extremists.

“The transitional authority figures have not succeeded in examining the (security) background at the FBI,” Rubio jokingly said.

But he added, “If we deal with them, it may succeed, and it may not succeed. If we do not deal with them, it is certain that it will not work.”

Rubio, who met the Syrian Foreign Minister in Türkiye on Thursday, blamed for the renewal of violence for the legacy of Assad belonging to the Alawite sect.

“They are facing a state of deep confidence in the country, because Assad deliberately raises the dispute between these groups against each other,” he said.
