Islamic State brings Russia and West togetherShifting geopolitics
Analysts see the turnaround in relations as heralding a "broader geopolitical shift" both in the countries' cooperation in Syria and beyond. "The main "winner" from the episode is Russia, as over the next few months, Moscow will gain more support for its diplomatic and military effort in Syria," analysts at Eurasia Group said in a note Tuesday.
Other analysts agreed that this was Russia's chance to come back to the international table and that military intervention in Syria could improve as a result.
"Prior to the attacks, Russia and the West had been able to accomplish little beyond establishing protocols for 'deconfliction' of their forces in the (Syrian) region – e.g. agreeing to keep out of one another's way," Daragh McDowell, Principal Russia Analyst at risk analysis company Verisk Maplecroft, said in a note Tuesday.
"But since the Paris attacks on 13 November, the potential avenues for cooperation have expanded rapidly," he said. The path of friendship is not bound to run smoothly, however, he warned, given that Russia wants to retain influence over a Syrian resolution and wants to return to prominence on the global stage.
"Moscow's broader geopolitical ambitions and the acceptance of Russia as a 'great power' on Russian terms will be much harder to swallow. The Kremlin envisages a world order determined by great powers, in which weaker states…are fundamentally subordinate and less than sovereign. This is ultimately incompatible with the Western liberal order," he said.
