On the road to Damascus

Hindustan Times  

The Arab Spring found its moment in Syria a decade and half after it had bloomed on Sunday when the Baathist regime fell and President Bashar al-Assad fled Damascus with his family to Moscow, where they were granted asylum. They have been fighting the Assad regime in the Syrian civil war that ravaged the West Asian country from 2011 onwards. The Assad regime, very much like Saddam Hussain in Iraq, held together a country that was born in the ruins of the Ottoman Empire after the first World War. For India, the Assad regime was a friend: Damascus was consistent in its support of the Indian stance on Kashmir in international fora.
