US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed on Tuesday that the United States is seeking to assist the new authorities in Syria to ensure their success, warning that failure to provide the necessary support could lead to their collapse, threatening to destabilize the entire region.
Rubio explained that the first test of US foreign policy will be in Syria, noting that the US embassy in Turkey will begin communicating with the new Syrian authorities to determine the nature of the support the country needs at this sensitive stage.
He added that the United States is keen to help the Syrian government succeed, believing that the alternative is the outbreak of a comprehensive civil war and chaos that could destabilize the region.
These statements come in the context of the political transformations taking place in Syria after the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad's regime, as the United States seeks to support the political transition process and ensure stability in the country and the region.
