There have been reports according to Al-Ba’ath, an Aramic language newspaper published by the Ba’ath party in Syria that Russian president Vladimir Putin wants to take over Ukraine after the United States government “promised the Russians that Ukraine would be a complete political subordinate to Moscow.”

In a report obtained by Neptune Prime and published by The Syrian Observer, referencing sources from U.S. leaks on February 17, 2022, the deal also includes Washington promising Russia to suspend adding Ukraine as a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO).

Furthermore, Russia will be allowed to “reshape the political system there, including the president, according to what Moscow sees fit for its interests,” as stated by The Syrian Observer. 

But things went sour for both the US and Russia after the latter rejected the offer.

“This would come in exchange for the Americans promising to the Russians that Ukraine would be a complete political subordinate to Moscow and also pledging not to include Ukraine in NATO and allow Moscow to reshape the political system there, including the president, according to what Moscow sees fit for its interests,” the medium added.

“The same leaks say that Moscow rejected this offer and informed Washington that it is committed to Ukraine and sticking to its alliance with Syria and the political system led by President Assad. President Putin even went further and sent the latest combat systems in the field of intercontinental ballistic missiles and bombers to the Hemeimeem base and began preparing for Russian maneuvers from this base. He then sent his Defense Minister, Sergei Shoigu, to Damascus to meet President Assad.

“Syria and the war on it cannot be viewed in isolation from international conflicts as a whole. The status of the Syrian economy and Syria’s current economic potential cannot be considered independently from the international economic conflict and its consequences for all countries of the world. It is also linked to the security, political and military sides.”
