Abstract: Iran, as a regional power, follows the Shia ideology sects since holding power in 1979. It attempts to achieve their goals via exporting revolution to other countries, support and protect them to form a global Islamic state leading by Iran itself.
However, Syria is secular regime, but it has a good relationship with Iran due to their sectarian ties, as an Allawite, Shiite–offshoot. Iran has supporting Syria politically, militarily, and economic since the Syrian Arab Spring in 2011 to achieve its goal to create a Shiite Crescent thru Syria. Nevertheless, it doesn’t mean that, Iran did not face any obstacles. There are many barriers; internally, regionally, and internationally have impact on Iran to play its role effectively. These hindrances have deeply effects the crisis in Syria. Kurdish issue is not out of the crisis circle because some countries support the Kurdish rights against the Syrian to change the regime or to replace the authoritarian political system in the country to a democratic federal state system.
Also, Iran supports Syria due to its geopolitics interconnection among Asia, Europe, and Africa continents. On the one hand, Iran could export its goods to Europe and Africa through Syria. On the other hand, Iran possibly will form the Islamic Oil Pipeline. Additionally, Iran will become a threat on state of Israel via helping its allies such as Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Palestine as well.
