Assad says Turkiye rapprochement doesn’t depend on troop withdrawal
DAMASCUS: President Bashar Assad said Sunday the withdrawal of Turkish forces from its territory was not a pre-requisite to a rapprochement between the estranged neighbors. “It’s not correct what was announced by some Turkish officials recently, that Syria said if there is no withdrawal, it will not meet with the Turks,” Assad told parliament on Sunday. “This talk is far from reality,” he added.
