Local Editor

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad asserted on Tuesday that Syria is proceeding resolutely in its war against all forms of takfiri terrorism which it has been waging for years.

Al-Assad met the Iraqi National Security Advisor, Faleh Fayyad, and the envoy of Russian Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi to tackle counterterrorism efforts.

Faleh briefed al-Assad on the latest steps taken in this regard, as well as discussing upcoming steps and possible measures to ensure the success of these efforts and eliminate terrorist organizations in all their forms.

For his part, al-Assad affirmed to Fayyad that Syria is proceeding resolutely in its war against all forms of takfiri terrorism which it has been waging for years, asserting that Syria supports any international counterterrorism effort.

He stressed that the success of such efforts isn't just linked to military action which is important, as it is also linked to states committing themselves to relevant international resolutions and what they entail in terms of stopping all forms of support for terrorist organizations.

Furthermore, the two sides affirmed the need to continue cooperation and coordination between the two countries' leadership in combating terrorism, particularly since this cooperation produced positive results for the people of Syria, Iraq, and the region.
