The fall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad poses challenges for Russia and Iran, while creating uncertainty for Syria's future. With Assad's removal, U.S. interests in the region are heightened, particularly regarding ISIS and the potential for new conflicts.

Le Monde: The fall of Syria's executioner, finally
Bashar al-Assad's regime has collapsed following a swift offensive by Islamist nationalists, exposing decades of oppression and decay. The fall of this dictatorship underscores the unsustainability of tyrannical rule and leaves Syria in ruins, necessitating a complete reconstruction of its political and social order.
The rise of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, a former al-Qaeda affiliate, raises concerns about the future, yet they claim legitimacy in the wake of Assad's downfall. The path to recovery will require the efforts of the Syrian people and support from neighboring countries and the West to facilitate reconstruction and the return of displaced citizens.
