This issue of the RAD focuses on Russia's involvement in the Syrian civil war. The first article examines how the Russian media's portrayal of the war has served Moscow's domestic and foreign interests. The second article then explores how Russia's support for the Assad regime has affected its relations with other countries in the Middle East. Finally, the issue provides a statistical portrait of Russian arms deliveries to Syria and opinion poll data that measures the Russian public’s attitudes towards the ongoing conflict.
