Indeed, when the history of Brexit is written, 2018 will go down as the year the British political and bureaucratic classes proved they were even more incompetent, weak and ineffectual than many of us gave them credit for.
In their seeming inability to implement Brexit, they have proved how feeble their right to rule was in the first place.
Ein weiterer Grund für die Wut der Europäer liegt in der Innenpolitik. Ähnlich wie die herrschende Klasse in den USA nutzen die europäischen Regierungen den Deckmantel des „Kriegs gegen den Terror“, um demokratische Rechte zu beschneiden und einen regelrechten Polizeistaat zu errichten. Vor allem die imperialistische Intervention in Syrien hat Terrornetzwerke hervorgebracht, die als Vorwand für weitreichende Angriffe auf demokratische Rechte dienten. Unter Bedingungen wachsender sozialer und politischer Opposition in ganz Europa wollen Paris, London und Berlin diese reaktionäre Kampagne intensivieren. Trumps Behauptung, der IS in Syrien sei „besiegt“, unterminiert diese Pläne.
A delegation of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) has arrived in Moscow to discuss a possible plan to stop a Turkish attack as well as the future of the east of the Euphrates, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said on Sunday.

Presently, Iran is interested in sending its products to Syria via Iraq because now this route passes through Turkey and requires additional time and extra costs. Iran hopes that transport and visa issues will be solved within the next few months, he added.
McGurk was intended to coordinate with the 79 countries involved in the US-led coalition against ISIS. It is not clear who his replacement will be, but with the administration arguing ISIS is defeated, there may be a low priority for this position.
Nach Mattis und jetzt McGurk gibt es Spekulationen, dass weitere in den nächsten Tagen zurücktreten werden, weil sie auch gegen Trumps Befehl sind, Syrien zu verlassen. Es wird angenommen, dass es im Pentagon eine breite Einheit in Richtung Aufrechterhaltung des Krieges gibt, was durch die Anzahl der Pentagon-Beamten belegt wird, die die letzten zwei Jahre damit verbracht haben, die langfristige Präsenz dort zu besprechen.

For one example, 50,000 Syrian civilian refugees living under the direct protection of the U.S. military are suddenly fearing for their lives.
Unanimously adopting resolution 2450 (2018), the 15‑member Council renewed UNDOF’s mandate until 30 June 2019, while stressing the obligation of the parties to scrupulously and fully respect the terms of the 1974 Disengagement of Forces Agreement. Calling upon them to immediately implement resolution 338 (1973) — which obliges them to cease all firing and terminate all military activity — Council members underlined that there should be no military activity by armed opposition groups in the area of separation, including by the Syrian Arab Armed Forces.
