Will Russia be able to reconcile Syria and Saudi Arabia?
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.[REGNUM] Unlike Turkey or Qatar, the fate of the Syrian opposition or the creation of a transitional executive body is not so important for Saudi Arabia, despite declarations and statements. At the current stage, as before the start of the civil war, Iranian influence in Syria and Lebanon remains a fundamental issue for Riyadh.  Saudi and Syrian officials say the countries are moving closer to an agreement to restore diplomatic ties after talks brokered by Russia. In particular, the issue of resuming the work of the Saudi Consulate General in the SAR and Syria's participation in the League of Arab States (LAS) is being discussed in essence. A decision on these issues can be made after the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which falls at the end of April.Posted by: badanov 2023-03-27 |
