Diplomatic experience of the settlement of the Syrian crisis by the UK

Abstract

The article is devoted to an urgent problem related to one of the most acute conflicts of our time, as well as related significant problems of regional and international level. Taking into account the research of foreign experts, based on the study of relevant sources, the position of the United Kingdom and the policy of the British government regarding the Syrian crisis are analyzed. Attention in the article is paid to the fact that the United Kingdom, following the position of the United States, treats the regime of Bashar al-Assad sharply negatively. According to international researchers, the current situation can be explained not only by the desire to support its transatlantic ally, but also by political, as well as socio-economic reasons, in particular the interests of British multinational corporations. In conclusion, it is concluded that the UK wants to strengthen its own position in the region more than its allies.
