The US has deployed sophisticated radar systems in Syria as a preamble
to imposing no-fly zones on the Russians and Syrians according to
Svobodnaya Pressa, a Russian outlet.
The report argues that “Trump’s regular comments on the high cost of
the Syrian campaign have given many reasons to believe that US forces
will withdraw in the near future from Syria.”
However, Alexei Leonkov, an expert on military affairs, ruled out the assumption that the Americans would leave.
Leonkov suggested, “The United States never abandons a country where it
has participated in war unless it has suffered a final defeat or a stark
national disgrace. The deployment of new equipment in the Kurdish areas
is because Washington does not have any more land that may be of value
in Syria, as the rest of the territory was returned to or will soon
return to Damascus.
The newspaper guest added: “our source in the military leadership said
that the news about the deployment of radars is not new. The US has
already planned to create no-fly zones. It was announced last year when
the US shot down a Syrian plane and then reported that it had violated
airspace. This is, of course, ridiculous, because the plane belongs to
Syrian forces, and was in the skies of Syria; thus it cannot violate the
Syrian airspace.”
