Syria's Post-Assad Era: A Shift in Alliances As the dust settles on the tumultuous presidency of Bashar al-Assad, Syria has undergone a significant transformation in its foreign policy landscape. Following Assad's unexpected fall from power in 2024, the country has begun to re-evaluate its relationships with former allies, leading to a significant realignment of its diplomatic ties.
