The international community should also be concerned with the coup’s regional implications. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s cynical declaration of support for the coup is a sign that some want to turn today’s struggle in the Arab world into a bloody contest between Islamists and secularists.
国际社会还应该担心政变的地区影响。叙利亚总统巴沙尔·阿萨德冷言支持政变表明有人希望将当今阿拉伯世界的斗争转变为穆斯林和世俗者的血腥冲突。
