The document summarizes the ongoing conflict in Syria, which began in 2011 as protests against President Bashar al-Assad but escalated into a civil war involving multiple factions. It notes that over half of Syria's pre-war population has been displaced and the country is engulfed in violence. International powers like the US, Russia, Iran, and Venezuela have intervened in the conflict in support of various sides. Peace plans and humanitarian aid efforts have so far failed to resolve the crisis, which remains ongoing after over 5 years.
Syrian civil war: Impact on Global Peace and Stability Sajid Karim
The Syrian crisis, which started in 2011 as an anti-government protest against President Bashar-al-Assad transformed into a civil war in the first quarter of 2012. Since then, the war continued unabated resulting into one of the worst humanitarian crises after the Second World War by killing more than 470,000 people and displacing half of the Syria’s total population either internally or externally. It has also dragged regional and global powers to wage proxy war in its territory and caused spill-over effects within and beyond the region. In this context, this paper is an attempt to analyse the Syrian crisis, geopolitics behind the crisis and its implications. In doing so, the paper identifies authoritarian nature of President Bashar-al-Assad’s government, sectarian division, deteriorated socioeconomic condition, competing gas export interest by global and regional powers, acute water crisis in rural areas and intervention of foreign powers as major reasons for deepening the crisis and prolonging this war. The ruling Baath Party of Syria headed by President Assad, coalition of Syrian opposition forces and their military entity, regional and global forces namely Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, Qatar, United States (US), Russia, Lebanon’s Shiite militia group Hezbollah and different Sunni armed extremist groups like Al-Nusra Front and Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) are the main actors of this conflict. The paper argues that apart from its devastating impact on Syria’s socio-political and economic condition, the conflict has shaken the entire Middle East in particular and has made a corrosive effect on the West’s relations with both Russia and China as a whole. This conflict has also caused the biggest wave of disorderly migration after the Second World War and facilitated emergence of armed extremist organisations like ISIS and Al Nusra Front which are posing serious threat to global peace and security
More than 200,000 Syrians have lost their lives in four years of armed conflict, which began with anti-government protests before escalating into a full-scale civil war. More than 11 million others have been forced from their homes as forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and those opposed to his rule battle each other - as well as jihadist militants from Islamic State.
Management of over 4 million refugees is in itself a great challenge and is likely to affect world economy.
Explains the nature and origins of present Syrian crises in the wider backdrop of the geopolitical and other faultlines of the Middle East..It then enumerates the stakes of the various global and regional powers and how they are reacting to the rapidly evolving situation.Ends with possible outcomes and suggests the best way forward.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

2. escalating to armed conflict after
President Bashar al-Assad's
government violently repressed
protests calling for his removal.
The war is being fought by the
Syrian Government, a loose
alliance of Syrian Arab rebel
groups, the Syrian Democratic
Forces, Salafi jihaidst groups and
the Islamic State of Iraq and the
Levant (ISIL).
The Syria Crisis is an ongoing multi-sided armed conflict with international
interventions taking place in Syria. The unrest grew out of the 2011 Arab
Spring protests,
3. Syria’s crisis is the worst
humanitarian crisis of the
time. Half the country’s pre-
war population — more than
11 million people — have
been killed or forced to flee
their homes. Families are
struggling to survive inside
Syria, or make a new home in
neighboring countries.
It will take $7.7 billion to
meet the urgent needs of the
most vulnerable Syrians in
2016. The status of the crisis
is given below.
Date 15 March 2011 – present
(5 years, 3 months, 3 weeks and
6 days)
Location Syria (with spillovers in neighboring
countries)
Status Ongoing
Territorial
changes
As of February 2016: the government
held 40% of Syria (66% of the
population); ISIL-held territory
constituted 20–40% of Syria; 20%
controlled by rebel groups (including the
al-Nusra front); 15–20% held by the Kurds
4. More than five
years after it
began, the full-
blown civil war has
killed over 250,000
people
Bombings are
destroying crowded
cities and horrific
human rights
violations are
widespread.
5. Syria’s crisis is the worst
humanitarian crisis of the time.
Half the country’s pre-war
population — more than 11
million people — have been killed
or forced to flee their homes.
Families are struggling to survive
inside Syria, or make a new home
in neighboring countries.
People are risking their lives on
the way to Europe, hoping to find
acceptance and opportunity. And
harsh winters and hot summers
make life as a refugee even more
difficult.
6. Every day around 5000 people, mainly
women and children, flee their homes
in Syria. Four million are being
sheltered by Syria’s five neighboring
countries who are struggling to cope.
With no end to the conflict in sight,
these numbers will increase. This is
the worst humanitarian crisis of our
lifetime and the international
community cannot continue to turn its
back on Syria’s refugees.
7. USA
During the Syrian Civil War, which began in 2011, the United States first supplied the
rebels of the Free Syrian Army with food rations and pickup trucks. But quickly began
providing training, cash, and intelligence to selected Syrian rebel commanders to
fund a proxy force against the sovereign state of Syria.
Russia
On 30 September 2015, Russia started a direct military intervention in Syria consisting
of air strikes against ISIL, the Al-Nusra Front, and other perceived enemies of the
Syrian government.
Iran
Has provided significant support for Syria in the Syrian Civil War. This is said to
include technical support, some combat troops, and $9bn in financial support.
Venezuela
In February 2012, it was reported that Hugo Chávez's government in Venezuela had
been shipping tens of millions of dollars of diesel to Syria, which can be used to fuel
army tanks
8. The Arab League, European Union, the
United Nations and many Western
governments quickly condemned the Syrian
government's violent response to the
protests, and expressed support for the
protesters' right to exercise free speech.
Initially, many Middle Eastern governments
expressed support for Assad, but as the
death toll mounted they switched to a more
balanced approach, criticizing violence from
both government and protesters.
Both the Arab League and the Organisation
of Islamic Cooperation suspended Syria's
membership.
9. USAID and other government
agencies in US delivered nearly
$385 million of aid items to Syria in
2012 and 2013.
The United States is providing food
aid, medical supplies, emergency
and basic health care, shelter
materials, clean water, hygiene
education and supplies, and other
relief supplies.
Islamic Relief has stocked 30
hospitals and sent hundreds of
thousands of medical and food
parcels.

11. Step 1: Agreement on general, reasonable principles.
Step 2: The formation of a broad-based forum comprised of
moderate, non-violent opposition groups and the government.
Step 3: The declaration of a ceasefire to be monitored by
international observers.
Step 4: The expansion of badly needed humanitarian assistance.
Step 5: The implementation of the above agreements and steps
through the formation of a transitional governing body.
Step 6: UN-organized and supervised free elections.

13. At this moment the crisis transitioned into civil war which has
become a curse of this world. Although everyone knows that
capitalist countries are behind this civil war. This crisis fueling
terrorism into many countries. As a result terrorist group like IS
has emerged, which is spreading rapidly around the world.
