As he received a visiting Russian parliamentary delegation, Assad said: "All of that needs serious efforts and not in the form of propaganda or grandstanding."
"Routing terrorism requires putting actual pressure on the parties that are involved in funding and arming the terrorists and facilitating their passage," he said.
He further expressed the Syrian people's "appreciation of Russia's principled policies in support of the stability, sovereignty and independence of states."
He spotlighted the significance that coordination between Syria and Russia continue on all levels, particularly on the parliamentary one, with the aim of countering terrorism and the takfiri trend that are alien to our societies, SANA reported.
For its part, the Russian delegation, headed by Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of Russian Federation, Ilyas Umakhanov, reaffirmed that his country is bent on continuing to support the Syrian people and bolstering their steadfastness in the face of the terrorist war that is targeting them.
