According to the scenario of the fugitive president Yanukovych: how Russia can cunningly use Assad Anzhelika Galesevich

Russia has become a haven for many exiled presidents, including Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad. He will pay crazy money for life in Moscow and will maintain information silence for now.

In just a few years, he may face the path of the fugitive president Viktor Yanukovych, whom the Kremlin wanted to restore to the post of head of Ukraine after the start of a full-scale invasion. Political strategist Mikhail Sheitelman shared this assumption with Channel 24.

Assad may face the fate of Yanukovych

Several dozen leaders of other countries, for example, former President of Kyrgyzstan Askar Akayev, former President of Angola Jose Eduardo dos Santos, former President of Mongolia Yumjagiin Tsedenbal, fled to Russia after the overthrow of their regimes.

None of them live for free, so Bashar al-Assad's family will also pay corrupt Russian officials for living in Moscow. The amounts are simply enormous – billions of dollars. But the Syrian dictator has that kind of money, he took it all out of Syria. Therefore, the Russians are ready to sell him Russian citizenship and protection.

What is important is that the fourth president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, also fled to Russia. For a long time, no one heard about him, but at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the Russian authorities brought the fugitive to Belarus. A special operation was being prepared, the Kremlin hoped to restore him to the post of the Ukrainian leader. Bashar al-Assad may face a similar fate.

If any discussions begin in Syria in 10-20 years, Russia may put forward his candidacy. Like, “we have the former Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad, do you want him or not?”. He has always been a Russian agent, why not make him the president of Syria again, suggested Mikhail Sheitelman.

Right now, according to the political strategist, Assad will remain silent and improve his personal life. However, in a few years, they will start talking about him more and more, as they did about Yanukovych after February 24, 2022.

Recall that Syrian rebels burned the grave of the founder of the regime in Syria, Hafez al-Assad, in his hometown of Qardaha.
