Syria and Islamic nations share many common views on global affairs and
geopolitical developments, Syrian ambassador to Moscow Bashar Jaafari
has told RT. Speaking at the sidelines of Russia’s International
Economic Forum in Kazan, Jaafari called for a formal “political
declaration” to be signed by Russian and Islamic leaders. He accused
Washington of hypocritical policies, saying it supports Syria’s
territorial integrity and independence in name only during voting at the
UN Security Council, while still occupying parts of its territory. He
also praised the “century-long history of relations” between Syria and
Russia, ties that go “beyond” the strategic level. Earlier this month,
Syria was invited back into the Arab League after a 12-year suspension
from the organization, and Damascus also restored diplomatic relations
with Riyadh this month.
