Well, they’re partnering with Iran, so that might be their thinking. It’s definitely the type of thinking Putin would have.

Putin is chest deep in the Big Muddy. And the fool said to march on.

I believe this could possibly be the main goal of why they are in Syria. To build an alliance with Iran and Iraq and control the Mid-East oil.

He is betting on the US to do nothing and Iran to become the major power in the region.

I wouldn’t count on that. Global projection was never a strong suit even for the USSR. For Putin’s Russia with its dilapidated logistics and rusting navy, it would be an impossibility. Plus, Saudi Arabia is one place the USA would fight tooth and nail for if invaded.
