Maybe the Russians should stop in and provide stability?
The Article linked stated that the Russian don’t want to get involved due to possibility of another Afghanistan-type war.
‘Maybe the Russians should stop in and provide stability?’
There is no need for both US or Russia to get involved.
Both American-Vietnamese and Russian-Afghanistan wars were started that way. Both US and Russia has picked a ‘good side’ just to help them out a bit and it turned to a total war. A few people knows now it was initially a civil wars but everyone blames US or Russia as a brutal agressors.
In contrast with Vietman people in that region do have no ideology to fight for. All they want is killing people who are at least a bit more fortunate than they are.
Any foreign power will be defined as ‘infidel occupation force’ in months and both opposing sides will be united attacking their saviors came to set peace between them.
That is that interim government wants is to distract people from government itself, to make dirty job done with other hands since they were busy to condemn previous government for being too tough on pro-their riots and to unite people. I’m sure at the end they will call their people to attack ‘infidels’ who were so kind to give them a hand.
I bet they have to deal with it themself.
