Syrian President Bashar al-Assad emphasized that Syrian-Lebanese relations should not be affected by changes and circumstances, and that Syria will remain by the Lebanese people's side and help them at many levels.

A Lebanese delegation headed by the Lebanese Democratic Party Talal Arslan was received by the Syrian President, where he expressed that members of the delegation represent the true face of Lebanon, and express the majority of the Lebanese who believe in the necessity of good relations with Syria.

Al-Assad explained that leaders who have a clear vision are ones who can create lasting relationships with the people, amidst attempts of dismantling social and national structures in the region.

Arslan, on the other hand, applauded Damascus' lesson to the world in not succumbing to global colonial violence and chaos, adding that the agony of the Lebanese and Syrian people is a product of neo-colonialism.

He stressed that any hostility towards Syria is hostility towards Lebanon, noting that true patriots would not accept the estrangement that took place between Syria and Lebanon.
