Shaybani in Ankara on disarmament response

The article revolves around the escalation of tensions and political conflicts in the region, focusing on statements by Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad Shibani, who called for arms to be held exclusively by the state in Lebanon and Iraq to establish stability. This stance reflects Damascus's move toward reducing Iranian influence in both countries. Analyses indicate that Shibani's words serve as a dual message: firstly, to Hezbollah, potentially as an indirect response to Qasem Qasem's announcement of the party's openness to Damascus, but with conditions that could complicate its relationship with the Syrian regime. Secondly, to the regional axis, as Damascus adopts a rhetoric calling for an end to Iranian expansion, especially in Lebanon and Iraq, paralleling long-standing Arab calls to confront the presence of "Iranian proxies" in the region. Leaks suggest that Damascus is prepared to enter Lebanon with Arab approval, provided it has support from Arab armies. This situation recalls Syria's invasion of Lebanon in 1976, with Syria keen to mend its internal and regional alliances and understandings amidst current tensions.
