In Damascus, the Tajik diplomat met with Syria’s first Deputy Foreign Minister, Faisal Al-Mikdad. The Ambassador delivered a letter to the Syrian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Walid Al-Muallim, on behalf of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Tajikistan, Sirojiddin Muhriddin, with a view to strengthening bilateral relations.

During the meeting, the parties discussed the development of bilateral relations between the two countries and the establishment of cooperation in any mutually beneficial area.
