  • MIDDLE EAST, NORTH AFRICA China, Russia and Iran Seek to Revive Syrian Railways
    MIDDLE EAST, NORTH AFRICA China, Russia and Iran Seek to Revive Syrian Railways OE Watch Commentary: In late November, the Syrian Ministry of Transport announced a major “…China’s ownership of railways lines, in addition to its signing plan to repair, update and expand Syria’s railway of a 2017 agreement with Syria to use the Lattakia Port and system. As detailed in the accompanying excerpt from the Syrian government daily al-Thawra, the maritime transport means that China will own the country…” plan includes completing an earlier project to connect Deir ez-Zor and Albu Kamal, along the border with Iraq’s al-Anbar Province. It also calls for a new line across the Syrian desert, connecting Homs to Deir ez-Zor. Along with helping jump-start the domestic economy, an effective rail network would allow Syria to leverage is strategic location, at the crossroads of historical east-west and north-south trade routes. The accompanying passage from the Syrian opposition news source Enab Baladi highlights the importance of Chinese investment to Syrian reconstruction efforts in general and the railway sector in particular. It cites a Syrian researcher who hints at extensive Chinese involvement in the future ownership of the Syrian rail system, something that, combined with a 2017 agreement allowing China to use the Lattakia Port, means that China will “own the country.” Russia is also involved in revamping the Syrian rail network, and the article notes that Russia’s UralVagonZavod will be providing new railway cars to Syria starting next year. Syria’s planned railroad extension along the Euphrates from Deir ez-Zor to the Iraqi border dates from before the war.

  • Chapter 1 Outline of the Syrian Arab Republic
    PART I THE PRESENT SITUATION AND MAJOR ISSUES Chapter 1 Outline of the Syrian Arab Republic The Master Plan Study on the Development of Syrian Railways Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Outline of the Syrian Arab Republic 1.1 Background (1) Location The Syrian Arab Republic is located between 32 to 37 degrees of the north latitude in the northern part of the Arabian penisula. It lies on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, bounded by Turkey to the north, Iraq to the east, Palestine and Jordan from the south and by Lebanon and the Mediterannean Sea to the west. The total land area of the country is 185,180 km2. (2) History The modern state of Syria was established only in 1946. However archaeologists have unearthed evidence of habitation dating back to 5000 B.C. Furthermore many archaeolo- gists consider Damascus to be the world’s oldest continuously inhabited city. The Egyptians, Babylonians, Hittites, Chaldeans and Persians have successively ruled an- cient Syria. It became a part of the Greek empire in 333 B.C., and a province of the Ro- man empire from 64 B.C. to 400 A.D. Remains of the famous Roman roads are still ob- served in Syria attesting to that country’s importance as a transport hub for the empire. Syria fell under the Byzantine Empire up to the 7th century when it became a part of the Arab and Islamic nation. From the 16th century Syria fell under the rule of the Ottoman Empire. At that time Syria was part of the Sham region, which roughly covered the present countries of Syria, Leba- non, and parts of Palestine and Jordan.

    Anglo-French Relations in Syria: From Entente Cordiale to Sykes-Picot A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts James L. Bowman May 2020 © 2020 James L. Bowman. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Anglo-French Relations in Syria: From Entente Cordiale to Sykes-Picot by JAMES L. BOWMAN has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Peter John Brobst Associate Professor of History Florenz Plassmann Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 Abstract BOWMAN, JAMES L., M.A., May 2020, History Anglo-French Relations in Syria: From Entente Cordiale to Sykes-Picot Director of Thesis: Peter John Brobst Though the Entente Cordiale of 8 April, 1904 addressed several outstanding imperial tensions between the British Empire and the French Third Republic, other imperial disputes remained unresolved in the lead-up to World War I. This thesis explores Anglo-French tensions in Ottoman Syria, from the signing of the Entente to the secret Sykes-Picot Agreement in 1916. Syria proved to be a cause of frictions that brought many buried Anglo-French resentments back to the surface and created new ones. Cultural, strategic, and economic interests were at stake, interests which weighed heavily upon the Entente powers and which could not easily be forgone for the sake of ‘cordiality’. This thesis presents evidence that unresolved Anglo-French tensions in Syria raised serious concerns among officials of both empires as to the larger future of their Entente, and that even after the Entente joined in war against their common enemies, such doubts persisted.

  • Syria Is Tempting, but Will China Bite?
    Syria Is Tempting, But Will China Bite? by Dr. James M. Dorsey BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 1,648, July 17, 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: China looms large as a potentially key player alongside Russia and Iran in President Bashar Assad’s post-war Syria. With Russia and Iran lacking the financial muscle and the US and Europe refusing to engage with the Assad regime, China is, from Syria’s perspective, a shining knight on a white horse. Syria could become a key node in China’s infrastructure, telecommunications, and energy-driven Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)—but it could also drag China closer to the Middle East’s multiple conflicts. China’s economic interests in Syria On the eve of the Syrian Civil War, Muhammad Jarah’s and Ahmad Bustati’s warehouse in Damascus symbolized China’s emergence as Syria’s largest supplier of industrial and consumer goods. The dilapidated warehouse was stocked with everything from Chinese laser cutting machines to plastic toys for children. A decade of fighting dashed the two Syrian entrepreneurs’ hopes. However, things seemed to be looking up for businessmen like Jarah and Bustati once Syrian president Bashar Assad gained the upper hand in the war through the assistance of Russia and Iran. China sees longer-term economic potential in Syria as a regional node of what the BRI will eventually look like, irrespective of the coronavirus pandemic and its devastating economic consequences. Syrian officials have sought to drive home China’s competitive advantages and perceived interest in taking a lead in the reconstruction of their country.
