Is Russia able to fight in both Ukraine and Syria?

  • Due to the war against Ukraine, Russia is unable to easily step up its support for Syrian dictator Bashar Assad. Yet Moscow will not abandon Assad either, as Syria is too important to the Kremlin.

The article from MSN discusses Russia's military capabilities and its involvement in both Ukraine and Syria. It highlights that despite the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, Russia has not significantly reduced its military presence in Syria. Russia has been supporting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad since 2015, and even with the escalation in Ukraine, Moscow has managed to maintain its strategic interests in the Middle East. The piece notes that Russia's military strategy includes a careful balance of resources, utilizing advanced technology, and leveraging alliances to manage multiple fronts. It also touches on the economic and logistical challenges Russia faces, including sanctions and the need to rotate and rest its forces, but suggests that Russia's military-industrial complex has adapted to these pressures. The article concludes by questioning the sustainability of this dual engagement, given the potential for overstretch, but acknowledges Russia's demonstrated ability to juggle these commitments so far.
