  • 1. Anhui University of Finance and Economics, Anhui, China

Description

Since the outbreak of the Syrian conflict in 2011, it is still difficult to see its clear end, which is related to the complexity of the internal forces in Syria, but also related to the intervention of external forces in Syria. Britain, France and Germany, which have closer geographical and historical ties to Syria, are naturally involved. This is determined by the interests of the three countries in the Syrian conflict. Overall, the interests of the three countries in the Syrian conflict are: overthrowing the Assad government, opposing the Syrian government’s possession and use of chemical weapons, and combating the Islamic State. Of course, there are some differences in the enthusiasm and means of realizing the above interests among the three countries, and they are greatly influenced by the US and Russian policies towards Syria.
