Syria's position in Russia's foreign policy has always been intertwined with the Kremlin's strategic chess game against other great powers. This narrative can be stretched back to the 11th century, when the Orthodox rivalry between Kievan Rus and Byzantium set the stage for future alliances. In the newest JSOU Press publication, “Russia’s Syria Policy: From the Soviet Union to the Russian Federation,” author Arman Mahmoudian, Ph.D. explores how this historical bond between Russia and Syria weaves through the centuries, evolving from ancient ties into the complex, multi-faceted relationship we see today. Additionally, this monograph examines the evolution of the relationship between Russia and Syria—from its roots through the cold war and rise of the Assad dynasty to the Syrian civil war and beyond.

Class discussion and group exercises were the primary means for the intellectual exchange. During the academic exchange, participants discussed the importance of understanding an opponent's capabilities and limitations, building capacity to execute actions, and the essential requirements for military operations. JSOU's academic engagements enhance operational collaboration and strategic thinking among partner forces, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and adaptive thinking.

What is the Joint Warfighting Concept? And how does it affect SOF?" In our latest #JSOUsnapshot we explore the ever changing look at the Joint Warfighting Concept. Watch here: https://lnkd.in/eX52yXFu Throughout history, how, where, when and why nations have conducted warfare has changed due to advances in technology, the nature of relative power between nation states, and political realities at any given moment. As time goes on, the likelihood of large armies facing off in a field of battle decreases, and the future of warfare takes on an ever-evolving look.
