Moscow has entered high-stakes negotiations with Syrian rebel forces to protect its strategic military bases in Tartus and Khmeimim following the dramatic collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s government. With Assad seeking refuge in Moscow and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) rebels tightening their grip on Syria, Russian officials are racing to secure agreements ensuring the safety of their bases.
