Smart move? Maybe. But the West's memory is long. They'll use this as another excuse to paint Syria as unreliable.

It's all about realpolitik. Every Muslim nation should put its own sovereignty first, not bow to external pressure.

Honestly, the West has been alienating itself from the Muslim world for decades. Syria isn't losing much.

Politics is just a game of interests, no permanent friends or enemies. Syria's doing what it must to survive.

Syria has to look out for its own people first. Western approval doesn't put food on the table.

The West will always find a reason to meddle. Better to strengthen ties with those who actually have Syria's interests at heart.
