Putin fled from Syria as fast as Biden fled from Afghanistan. Losers both.

Unlike Russian’s presence in Syria, we never had a strategic interest in Afghanistan. Our long intervention should never have taken place.

For Russia, Syria has been the lynchpin to assert its influence in the region. Without it they might as well be Costa Rica.

The Russians have bigger fish to fry.

Thanks to the proxy war we started and done everything we could to keep going, Russian will end up in possession of 30% of Ukraine, at least, the most lucrative part of what was Ukraine.

I'm sure they can find another base somewhere to ship whatever they want to Africa.
