Lavrov emphasized that Moscow remains attentive to developments in Syria and is hopeful for a stable future led by its citizens.

On his part, al-Shaibani remarked that Syria is currently facing "challenges and threats," but he also recognized the situation as an opening to construct a unified and resilient nation.
"We are keen for Russia to stand with us on this path," he affirmed.
