DAMASCUS, MAR 5 (AFP/APP/DNA):Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani said he would take part in a meeting Wednesday of the international chemical weapons watchdog in the Netherlands, nearly three months after Bashar al-Assad’s ouster.
“Today, for the first time in Syria’s history, I am attending the executive council of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons in The Hague,” Shaibani said in a statement on X.
“This participation reaffirms Syria’s commitment to international security and honours those who lost their lives suffocating at the hands of the Assad regime,” he added.
