US-Backed Fighters Are Already Losing Hope in Post-Assad Syria

The article from MSN discusses the diminishing hopes of U.S.-backed fighters in Syria for a future without President Bashar al-Assad. Despite years of conflict and U.S. support for opposition groups, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and other factions are increasingly skeptical about achieving a political transition that would see Assad removed from power. The article highlights several reasons for this pessimism: the Assad regime has regained control over significant parts of Syria with the help of Russia and Iran, international attention has shifted away from the Syrian conflict, and there's a growing acceptance of Assad's continued rule by some global powers. Additionally, the SDF, primarily Kurdish-led, faces internal and external pressures, including threats from Turkey and the need to negotiate with the Assad government for local governance and security arrangements. The piece also notes the frustration among fighters who feel abandoned by the U.S., as American policy seems to prioritize other global issues, leaving the SDF in a precarious position with limited prospects for their envisioned post-Assad Syria.
