Russia remains a steadfast supporter of Syrian territorial integrity and fully endorses the government's current efforts to reclaim sovereignty, particularly in the Trans-Euphrates region, President Vladimir Putin said during talks with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa.
"We’ve been watching your work to restore Syria’s territorial integrity very closely," Putin told him. "I want to congratulate you because this process is really starting to pick up steam. You know our position — we’ve always stood for a unified Syria, and we’re backing you all the way on this."
Putin pointed to the reintegration of the Trans-Euphrates as a massive step for the country. He noted that bringing that region back into the fold is key to making Syria whole again, ending the meeting with another round of congratulations for the Syrian leader.
