Indian Foreign Ministry Undersecretary Sanjay Bhattacharya affirmed his country's continuous support for Syria at the political, economic, cultural, scientific and humanitarian levels, and its steadfastness on its stance calling for non-interference in the affairs of sovereign states and rejecting terrorism and extremism in all its forms.
During his meeting today with Syria's ambassador to India, Dr. Riyad Abbas, Bhattacharya expressed his hope that Syria would emerge from the consequences of the terrorist war that was imposed on it, especially after the successful completion of the presidential elections.
For his part, Abbas praised the efforts made by the Indian government in confronting and overcoming the consequences of the spread of the Corona virus pandemic with its new strains, and for India to get out of this confrontation with minimal losses.
The two sides discussed issues of cooperation between the two countries and ways for India to participate in its industrial, commercial, construction and service sectors in the reconstruction process in Syria. Abbas affirmed that India, like other countries friendly to Syria, will have an active role at this stage and that the doors are open for it to participate in the reconstruction.
Bhattacharya and Abbas affirmed the commitment of India and Syria to continue coordination and mutual cooperation to prevent the passage of projects supporting terrorism in international forums under various pretexts and false names of humanitarian corridors and buffer zones.
