The Russian Foreign Minister said, “We count on the participation of Syrian President Ahmad Al-Shara in the first Russian-Arab summit, scheduled to be held on October 15 in Russia.”
In turn, Al-Shibani said, “The current period is full of various challenges and threats, but it is also an opportunity to build a unified and strong Syria. Of course, we are interested in having Russia with us on this path.”
Al-Shibani pointed out that the Syrian authorities are currently working on matters related to recent events in the country and the situation in the region.
On December 8, 2024, they took control of the official Syrian TV building in the capital, Damascus, and announced their control over the country and the departure of former Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad’s government.
The Russian Foreign Ministry confirmed that former Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad has stepped down, and a source in the Kremlin stated that Assad and his family have arrived in Moscow, where they have been granted asylum for humanitarian reasons.
