Rubio Warns Syria Could Descend Into 'Full-Scale Civil War' Within Weeks - News From Antiwar.com
- On May 20, 2025, during a Congressional hearing, Secretary of State Marco Rubio cautioned that Syria may soon plunge into a widespread civil war following the rise to power of Ahmed al-Sharaa’s forces in December 2024.
- Rubio attributed the risk to ongoing conflicts and fragile governance despite President Trump's recent lifting of sanctions and meeting with al-Sharaa to support Syria's transitional authority.
- He explained that lifting sanctions aims to help neighboring countries assist Syria in building governance and unifying armed forces, but the transitional authority remains challenged and near collapse.
- Rubio warned that the transitional government could collapse in a matter of weeks rather than several months, stressing that failure to engage with them would almost certainly result in failure and heighten the risk of widespread civil conflict.
- Rubio warned that failure to stabilize Syria could lead to widespread civil war and regional destabilization, urging congressional and international efforts to support the new government.
