The Armenian National Assembly (NA) delegation, which has traveled to Syria, on Thursday met with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, to discuss the problems of Syrian Armenians and the future of Syria’s predominantly Armenian-populated town of Kessab.
NA deputy and ruling Republican NA Faction member Levon Martirosyan, who is in Syria at present, told the aforesaid to Armenian News-NEWS.am.
He noted that the meeting was held in a cordial atmosphere.
"Now, we are much better informed about the events unrolling in and around Syria. We exchanged views with the president. We reached an agreement that we will exchange the information we received to the Armenian body politic and, if possible, to the international community, too.
"The Syrian government is determined to establish peace and to fight against those groups which have intruded [into Syria] from foreign countries, including Turkey.
"The Syrian government does not differentiate between its citizens. Also, it will help the Armenian community return to Kessab. There is a very positive attitude [in Syria] toward the Armenians," Martirosyan informed.
