Ahmed Al Sharaa, el cabecilla de la organización islamista Hayat Tahrir Al Sham, la misma que acaudilló la campaña que derrocó al régimen de Bashar al-Assad hace dos semanas, tiene por delante un desafío mayúsculo, el de poner en orden y gobernar un país devastado por la guerra. Desde su victoria a principios de este mes, Sharaa, antes conocido por su nombre de guerra Abu Mohammed Al Golani y designado como terrorista por Estados Unidos y la Unión Europea, ha adoptado una perspectiva más moderada y pragmática. Ha colgado en el armario su uniforme caqui, ha escondido las armas y se ha embutido en un traje de hombre de negocios para transmitir tranquilidad a los países vecinos y a las potencias occidentales. Asegura que quiere una transición pacífica en Siria, que el país recupere la democracia y que se acabe la guerra civil. Pero nada de eso será tarea fácil. Hasta hace sólo un mes el grupo de milicianos de Sharaa controlaba sólo una pequeña zona en el noroeste de Siria en torno a la ciudad de Idlib, en las inmediaciones de la frontera turca. Ahora son los dueños de Damasco y de la costa siria. Eso implica que deben administrar una superficie mucho mayor y gestionar bastantes más problemas que antes. El primero de ellos es el de la diversidad étnica. Siria es un crisol religioso que hasta ahora ha convivido más o menos en paz. En el país hay musulmanes de diferentes familias, varias confesiones cristianas y una numerosa comunidad drusa. En Alepo, la mayor ciudad del país y la primera de sus conquistas, prometieron respeto hacia todas las comunidades y dejaron intactas las iglesias. Un precedente esperanzador ya que en Siria no sólo están los hombres de Sharaa. Gobernar en todo el país significa ponerse de acuerdo con varios grupos de oposición al régimen de los Assad, construir sobre esas milicias un ejército nacional, redactar una constitución y mantener funcionando los servicios públicos. Para lo primero necesitarán un consenso muy amplio que, en un país que encadena trece años de guerra, supondrá una tarea monumental y llena de dificultades. Por de pronto Sharaa y sus aliados más cercanos se plantean una transición de aproximadamente un año para establecer las bases de un nuevo Gobierno que, según ellos, lo será de todos los sirios sin importar su religión. Tendrán también que abordar una serie de decisiones que se antojan complicadas habida cuenta del pasado de Tahrir Al Sham. Una de ellas es la relativa a los derechos de las mujeres. La Siria de Bashar Al Assad era una dictadura, pero de tipo laico. Las sirias no tenían, por ejemplo, obligación de llevar el velo islámico y estaba prohibida la discriminación por razón de sexo. Es un misterio si el nuevo Gobierno seguirá por ese camino o implantará la sharía. Pero los problemas de Sharaa no terminan ahí. La influencia de potencias extranjeras como Rusia, Irán, las tensiones con las milicias kurdas apoyadas por Occidente y la presencia del ejército israelí en los Altos del Golán, complican aún más la situación. En EEUU la administración saliente se ha mostrado proclive a negociar con los nuevos amos del país. Se están incluso planteando retirar la designación como grupo terrorista a Tahrir Al Sham. El último embajador estadounidense en Damasco, Robert Ford, que abandonó la embajada en 2014, es partidario de normalizar las relaciones con el nuevo Gobierno. Pero Trump tomará posesión del cargo en menos de un mes y con él su nuevo secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio. Sólo entonces sabremos cuál será la nueva política siria de la Casa Blanca, una política que la Unión Europea seguramente secunde.

Robert Ford, exembajador de Estados Unidos en Siria, se refirió en La W a la caída del régimen de Bashar Al-Asad y el futuro de Siria y la región.

A former US Ambassador to Syria says the collapse of the more-than-50-year Assad Regime in Syria is a happy coincidence for the US. Leader Bashar al-Assad has fled Damascus for political asylum in Moscow. US President Joe Biden's called it a 'historic opportunity' to build a better future. Former ambassador Robert Ford says Biden shouldn't take credit - and Assad's control of major cities was very brittle. "When pushed - that is, to say, when a serious armed opposition attack came - his soldiers didn't stand and fight. Instead, they ran away."

Relația bună care a existat între președintele Erdogan și omologul său american Donald Trump în timpul primului mandat al acestuia din urmă (2016 – 2020) ar putea impulsiona cooperarea bilaterală pe teme extrem de sensibile, cum ar fi situația din Siria și Ucraina, dar conflictul din Gaza va fi cel mai probabil un măr al discordiei, afirmă mai mulți experți intervievați de agenția turcă de știri Anadolu. ”Sunt optimist, relațiile bilaterale s-au îmbunătățit în ultimii ani”, a declarat James Jeffrey, fost ambasador american în Turcia, care a subliniat că există puncte de vedere comune privind situația din Siria, dar și referitoare la potențialele amenințări dinspre Iran, potrivit sursei citate.”Cei doi președinți  au dovedit deja că pot avea o relație pragmatică, în care interesele naționale au întotdeauna prioritate”, a spus la rândul său Luke Coffey, politolog la Hudson Institute in Washington.Un subiect delicat îl reprezintă susținerea pe care până acum administrația americană a acordat-o Partidului Muncitorilor din Kurdistan (PKK), formațiune considerată teroristă de către Turcia, dar Robert Ford, fost ambasador american în Siria spune că este foarte probabil ca situația să se schimbe: ”Aș fi foarte surprins dacă Trump ar decide să nu retragă trupele americane dislocate în Siria și să continue susținerea pentru PKK”, a declarat el pentru agenția Anadolu.Fiecare oraș din Kazahstan va avea propriul său cod arhitectonicFiecare oraș din Kazahstan va trebui să respecte un cod arhitectonic unic. Reprezentanții guvernului au anunțat, în cadrul Conferinței internaționale de arhitectură ARCHICA 2024, care a avut loc recent în capitala Almaty că vor pune în curând în dezbatere publică un proiect de lege în acest sens, transmite publicația DKnews.kz.Codul arhitectonic este un ansamblu de reguli care vizează crearea unui stil unic pentru fiecare oraș: respectarea unei anumite palete de culori, concepția fațadelor, a intrărilor în clădiri, a unui plan peisagistic caracteristic, etc.Regulile se vor aplica nu doar clădirilor nou construite, ci și celor deja existente.În cazul capitalei Almaty culorile principale vor fi albastru și verde, iar cele secundare gri și maro.Proiectul de lege încurajează plantarea de arbori nu doar în curțile interioare, ci și pe acoperișuri și pe fațade, în parcări și zone de staționare și prevede implementarea de sisteme de irigare automate.Fiecare zonă urbană va avea o imagine caracteristică, în funcție de contextul istoric și cultural local, dar și de exigențele comunităților și întreprinderilor locale, amintește sursa citată.Armenia: Parteneriatul strategic cu Georgia, factor de stabilitate regionalSemnarea la începutul acestui an a declarației comune privind parteneriatul strategic dintre Armenia și Georgia a ridicat nivelul cooperării bilaterale la un nivel fără precedent și va contribui în mod semnificativ la stabilitatea regională, a declarat ambasadorul Georgiei la Erevan, Gueorgui Charvachidzé într-un interviu acordat agenției de știri Armenpress.”Cooperarea bilaterală este mai bună ca niciodată, atât în domeniul politic, cât și economic, cultural, energetic cât și al turismului. Îmi face plăcere să reamintesc că de la 1 iulie 2023, cetățenii georgieni și armeni pot trece frontiera fără pașaport, doar pe baza cărții de identitate biometrică”, a declarat ambasadorul.De asemenea, în martie 2024 grupul ”Bank of Georgia”, a realizat o investiție fără precedent în Armenia, preluând cea mai importantă instituție financiară a țării, ”Ameria Bank” pentru suma de 303,6 milioane de dolari, a amintit diplomatul.Un program de cooperare în domeniul militar între cele două țări a fost semnat în luna iulie a acestui an, cu ocazia vizitei ministrului georgian al apărării, Irakli Chikovani în Armenia, a mai precizat ambasadorul în interviul acordat agenției Armenpress. Au contribuit la redactarea Revistei presei Europa Plus:Emil Kozhanov - Kazakhstan;Shushanik Tsaturyan - Armenia Europa Plus este un proiect RFI România realizat în parteneriat cu Agenția Universitară a Francofoniei

In this special episode we will be exploring the incredible life of Pan Am Captain Robert Ford, a trailblazing flying boat aviator that found international fame with an unscheduled flight round the globe. And we welcome back to the program Pan Am 747 Captain John Marshall that knew Pan Am legend Captain Robert Ford and recorded an interview with him in 1994 shortly before he died.Excerpts of this rare interview are played and you will get to hear the actual voice of Captain Ford talking about his aviation career in the late 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s!In December of 1941, Captain Ford was ferrying mail and passengers from San Francisco to New Zealand aboard a Pan Am Boeing 314 flying boat named the Pacific Clipper.On December 7, 1941, Japanese forces attacked Pearl Harbor and Captain Ford was ordered to evade the enemy and prevent the Japanese from capturing the aircraft for its technology.  Skirting the trouble zone and watching for enemy aircraft, he headed the flying boat west over Australia, India and Central Africa, then crossed to South America, eventually making a safe landing at the Marine Terminal at what is now La Guardia Airport in New York on Jan. 6, 1942.The entire trip covered 31,500 miles in 209.5 hours of flying time, some of it over war territory. The Clipper had a range of 4,500 miles, and its longest single flight was 3,583 miles across the South Atlantic from Central Africa, to Brazil. Captain Ford, who was then 35 at the time, called his round-the-world flight "a purely routine operation."Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1906, Captain Robert Ford earned his wings as a naval aviator before joining Pan American Airways in 1933. He flew Pan Am's routes in Central and South American, as well as, the Caribbean before transferring to the Atlantic division in 1939, flying Clippers between New York and Lisbon. He shifted to the Pacific route in July 1941. Before his round-the-globe journey, he had completed some 50 flights across the two oceans.After retiring in 1952 from Pan Am, Captain Ford became a cattle rancher in Penn Valley, California, north of Sacramento. He died in October of 1994 at the age of 88. At the time of his death, he had been a rancher for 45 years.Special thanks to Captain John Marshall, board member of the Pan Am Museum Foundation, for allowing this program to use his 1994 interview with Captain Ford. --------------------Visit Us for more Pan Am History! Support the Podcast!Donate to the Museum!Visit The Hangar online store for Pan Am gear!Become a Member! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!--------------------A very special thanks to Mr. Adam Aron, Chairman and CEO of AMC and president of the Pan Am Historical Foundation and  Pan Am Brands for their continued and unwavering support! Support the show

This week, Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., brought forward a war powers resolution, backed by the Congressional Progressive Caucus, that would bring U.S. troops home from Syria. On Wednesday night, the resolution was rejected by Democrats and Republicans alike. During the debate, some advocated for an endless occupation, while their arguments unwittingly made the point that the U.S. government may not be the best group to solve the crisis. This week on Deconstructed, Ryan Grim is joined by Robert Ford, who was President Barack Obama's ambassador to Syria up until 2014. Although he was known inside the White House as a hawkish supporter of arming the Syrian opposition, this week he came out in support of Gaetz's resolution to pull out U.S. troops. Ford describes some of the political maneuvering and behind-the-scenes conversations taking place in 2013 and why he is calling to remove U.S. troops from Syria. Hosted on Acast.
