US Special Envoy for Syria Tom Barrack has said that “Syria is now a laboratory for a new regional alignment of diplomacy, integration and hope for the entire region”.
Barrack’s remarks came in a post on X on Sunday, following a Saturday meeting with Syrian President Ahmed al Sharaa to discuss developments in Syria and the region.
Under al Sharaa’s leadership and with “the dedicated diplomacy” of Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad Hassan al Shaibani, Syria has achieved “remarkable” progress, said the envoy.
The opportunities ahead offer “exponential advancement” for the Syrian people and enduring stability, he added.
The meeting took place at the People’s Palace in Damascus.
The Syrian Arab News Agency reported the two sides discussed “developments in Syria and the region and ways to enhance economic cooperation between the two countries.”
