Syrian civil war: Impact on Global Peace and Stability Sajid Karim
The Syrian crisis, which started in 2011 as an anti-government protest against President Bashar-al-Assad transformed into a civil war in the first quarter of 2012. Since then, the war continued unabated resulting into one of the worst humanitarian crises after the Second World War by killing more than 470,000 people and displacing half of the Syria’s total population either internally or externally. It has also dragged regional and global powers to wage proxy war in its territory and caused spill-over effects within and beyond the region. In this context, this paper is an attempt to analyse the Syrian crisis, geopolitics behind the crisis and its implications. In doing so, the paper identifies authoritarian nature of President Bashar-al-Assad’s government, sectarian division, deteriorated socioeconomic condition, competing gas export interest by global and regional powers, acute water crisis in rural areas and intervention of foreign powers as major reasons for deepening the crisis and prolonging this war. The ruling Baath Party of Syria headed by President Assad, coalition of Syrian opposition forces and their military entity, regional and global forces namely Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, Qatar, United States (US), Russia, Lebanon’s Shiite militia group Hezbollah and different Sunni armed extremist groups like Al-Nusra Front and Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) are the main actors of this conflict. The paper argues that apart from its devastating impact on Syria’s socio-political and economic condition, the conflict has shaken the entire Middle East in particular and has made a corrosive effect on the West’s relations with both Russia and China as a whole. This conflict has also caused the biggest wave of disorderly migration after the Second World War and facilitated emergence of armed extremist organisations like ISIS and Al Nusra Front which are posing serious threat to global peace and security
