Saddoun N. Al-Majali, Raafat Abdel salam Tarawneh: The Chinese Position on the Syrian Crisis 2011-2018

That China's participation in the campaign against terrorists comes to protect its
interests in Syria economically. China is investing tens of billions of dollars in Syrian
infrastructure. China does not want Syria to become a haven or a center for terrorist
attacks against Chinese citizens and interests abroad. The explosion of the Chinese
embassy in "Kyrgyzstan" on 30 August 2017, adopted by the "Islamic Turkistan"
movement funded by the organization "Nasra" in Syria, and this work is a justification
for the Chinese forces to go to Syria because the "Turkistan movement" will not stop
at this stage, Of their attacks against Chinese interests wherever they may be
[Husseini, Sneh (2015), Jaafar, Khadija (2017)].

The whole world is waiting to know the fate of Syria after the intervention of world
powers in the civil war, which has had a great impact on the country, it is naive to
believe that peace is coming to Syria and that it will The leaders of Russia, Turkey
and Iran met in Sochi to discuss the future of Syria, while the Syrian opposition held
other talks, considering that Assad's departure is necessary to move to the transitional
phase. The newspaper added that Syria has turned into a model To the political
experiences of a number of international forces This is a unique precedent in recent
history. Perhaps the best proof of this is the presence of two great military powers at
the same time on the Syrian territories, Russia and the United States of America, each
with its geopolitical orientation. China also decided to have its military forces as a
third major power To join the game geopolitical in Syria, and the expert that China's
adoption of this decision came after the visit of US President Donald Trump to
Beijing, therefore, China's help to the Syrian opposition an opportunity to pressure
Assad, in addition, this may strain relations between Beijing and Moscow. China will
undoubtedly compete with Russia in Syria, and will try to find a way to strengthen its
role in the region and outweigh its opponents.

The newspaper stressed that China will depend on some local forces in Syria, but it is
not known who are these forces specifically. Of course, this will be a turning point for
Assad and his most important ally, Russia, and despite the relations between Russia
and China, Beijing must adhere to the US proposal that puts pressure on Russia in
Syria because of Beijing's desire to develop economic cooperation with Washington
and its unwillingness to abandon them. Projects that primarily serve their economic
interests [Salem, Ayoub (2011), Middle East (2017)].
