French President Emmanuel Macron is meeting with Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa in Damascus, according to a report by N12 journalist Asaf Rozentzweig. The meeting takes place during Macron's ongoing visit to Syria, the first by a Western head of state since the fall of the Assad regime.
A new report from N12 journalist Asaf Rozentzweig indicates that French President Emmanuel Macron is currently meeting with Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa in Damascus. The meeting comes after earlier reports on Tuesday morning suggested the two leaders were meeting at the Élysée Palace in Paris. However, the latest report places the meeting in the Syrian capital, where Macron arrived on Monday for the first official visit by a Western head of state since the fall of the Assad regime.
The Zioneer previously reported on Macron's arrival in Damascus and his visit to the Umayyad Mosque earlier Tuesday. The meeting with al-Sharaa is a significant diplomatic development, as Western powers gradually reengage with the new Syrian administration. No details about the agenda or outcomes of the meeting have been disclosed.
