Russia is uniquely qualified to resolve the war in Syria. First of all, no other nation has large Chechen military police. These are Muslim fighters Universally respected in the Middle East. They are able to police the any deconfliction zones created. Second, only completely naive and moronically stupid would deny the role of US government in fueling Syrian conflict, thus, the people who created conflict are not the ones to solve it. Lastly, in the Middle East Obama lost every last shred of American credibility.
