A peace settlement proposed by Putin, with the US coalition, EU, the Gulf States and even that key-player Australia, not included at the round table. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear …… I suppose the US and its partners in crime will then do everything in their power to make sure peace doesn’t happen ………….. that’s for sure!
Vladimir Putin outlines road map for Syrian peace settlement
Putin does however agree – as incidentally does President Assad – that members of the Syrian opposition should join a transitional government, which should government Syria until the terms of the new constitution are agreed and the elections take place.
This conception for a settlement of the Syrian conflict remains however completely unacceptable to Western governments and the Gulf Arab states, who remain committed to their agenda of regime change in Syria. For this reason they are guaranteed to receive President Putin’s proposal for a peace conference in Astana with hostility and alarm. To get a sense of what their attitude is going to be, just consider the wording of this paragraph in an editorial in the British newspaper the Observer published today Sunday 18th December 2016:
"The third aspect is diplomatic: namely, Russia’s bid to take charge of peace negotiations that until now have been overseen by the UN and largely driven by the US and the EU. Putin’s unilateral announcement of ceasefire talks in Kazakhstan later this month, co-sponsored by Turkey and excluding the western powers, illuminates his ambition to elevate Russia as the Middle East’s premier power-broker and side line the US and Europe. By posing as peacemaker, Putin hopes to confound those who accuse him of barbarism and war crimes. In Putin’s old KGB playbook about ends and means, a Russian imposed settlement in Syria, however crude. would justify his brutal and illegal methods. For the world at large, that is the most dangerous outcome of all."
