Moscow’s announcement that the “main part” of its combat contingent will withdraw from Syria is interesting and potentially positive. Yet it must be treated with caution. What will be withdrawn? When? What will be left behind? What capabilities will reside in that which remains in Syria? Until these basic questions are answered the announcement, in and of itself, is without substantive meaning, leaving Moscow free to continue its air assaults on Syrian civilians and on rebel military units that have received arms and equipment from the United States and its partners.
