Bashar al-Assad reportedly granted asylum in Russia but faces ongoing threats

Bashar al-Assad has reportedly been granted asylum in Russia, but his safety remains uncertain. The Syrian dictator faces ongoing threats from those he harmed during his regime, making it difficult for him to find true refuge. Assad's past actions, including the use of chemical weapons, have left him with many enemies. While Russia currently hosts him, the stability of this arrangement is questionable, especially if political changes occur in Russia. Assad's situation mirrors that of other dictators who sought refuge but faced danger from their past. He may live in fear for the rest of his life, as his enemies could pursue him even in exile.
