The political crisis in Syria, which began in 2011, is considered one of the most complex regional crises of recent decades. In addition to internal factors, regional and transregional actors have also played active roles based on their own interests and strategic objectives. Among these actors, the United States has been one of the most influential powers, adopting various positions and measures regarding the Syrian conflict. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of U.S. intervention in the Syrian crisis and its consequences for the national security of the Islamic Republic of Iran between 2011 and 2023. This research is applied in nature and employs a descriptive–analytical method. Data were collected through a questionnaire distributed among 35 experts using a census approach. The findings indicate that the United States, by exerting political pressure, imposing economic sanctions on the Syrian government, and providing military and financial support to opposition groups, has sought to alter the regional balance of power. Additionally, Washington’s efforts to enhance the security of the Israeli regime and weaken the Axis of Resistance have been key components of its strategy. The main consequences of these actions include the reduction of Iran’s strategic depth, limitation of its regional influence, and the intensification of threats to its national security. Overall, U.S. intervention in the Syrian crisis not only perpetuated instability within Syria but also created a serious challenge to Iran’s security and strategic interests in the Middle East.
