‘Surprises’ in Damascus Receive the Lebanese Delegation!
The results of the Lebanese ministerial delegation's visit to Damascus did not match expectations: Syria's interior minister was unable to attend for what were described as emergency reasons, postponing the visit of his Lebanese counterpart Ahmed al-Hajjar, while a technical delegation from the ministry participated. Most notably, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa did not receive the Lebanese delegation headed by Deputy Prime Minister Tarek Mitri. The article calls for a calm Lebanese review of how official visits are prepared and for balanced relations with Damascus based on mutual respect and cooperation on displacement, transit, electricity, trade and border control.
