Le Monde: Against Syria's Bashar al-Assad, world powers hesitated for more than a decade
The Syrian revolution began in March 2011 as protesters challenged Bashar al-Assad's regime, which was initially underestimated by global powers. Despite hopes for change, the regime's violent response quashed the movement, leading to a prolonged conflict that saw Assad maintain power with support from Russia and Iran.
The uprising sought dignity and reform, contrasting sharply with the regime's oppressive tactics. The situation escalated as international intervention was delayed, culminating in Assad's eventual retreat amidst rebel advances in December 2023.
