The new Syrian authorities, led by Ahmed al-Shara, have demanded that Russia extradite Bashar al-Assad. The former leader of Syria sought asylum in the Kremlin after fleeing the country.
Reuters reported on the demand for Russia to extradite Bashar al-Assad, citing a Syrian source with information on the discussions taking place in Damascus with the Russian delegation.
Meanwhile, the Syrian news agency Sana reported that Damascus wants Russia, which supported Assad during the more than decade-long civil war, to pay reparations and contribute to the reconstruction of the devastated country. However, Moscow does not want to acknowledge its responsibility, the source told Reuters.
Discussions with the Russian delegation, headed by Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov, also concerned the restoration of relations between the two countries. The new Syrian authorities "emphasised that restoring relations must take into account the mistakes of the past, as well as the will of the Syrian people and their interests."
Что может пойти не так с идеей постассадовской сирийско-российской дружбы? Вот в РФ и рассматривают это предложение серьезно.
Хотя предусмотреть такое развитие событий не труднее, чем результаты задушeвной доверительной беседы с партнерами из колл центра.
