- The decision of withdrawing the main Russian troops does not include the modern air-defense networks which were of SS-400 model.
- The threat on Syria from an Israeli aggression by air, or harassment or an adventure by the Saudi side or the Turkish side will still possible.
- If the intention in the remaining of the networks SS -400 was through managing the networks by Russia, then this means for those who want to invest the Russian decision by a military air action, nothing will change as before the withdrawal, regardless whether the Russians will face it or not, because the matter is the same before the decision and after it.
- If the intention was that Russia is no longer a direct party, thus the remaining of the modern networks under the control of the Syrian army and at the hands of a country that defends on its sovereignty, will make them easier in use than being into the considerations of superpower such as Russia.
- Those who cheered from the enemies of Syria by the Russian decision will know that nothing will change, and if it changes then it will be in favor of Syria.
- If the Russians had given SS-400 to Syria, then it would have been a big matter, but they have done that in a way that makes the world applauds for them.
