Al-Assad: Main battle is against West's hegemonic policies

On his part, Al-Assad welcomed Pushilin’s message and expressed Damascus' readiness to raise relations with the DPR to a political level.

The Syrian President congratulated the delegation on liberating the greatest part of the Donbass region, considering that Russia and Syria are fighting one battle against one enemy, adding that the United States is backing terrorists and neo-Nazis.

Al-Assad explained that the main battle is against the West's hegemonic policies, stressing that countries that defend their sovereignty must build strong relationships among themselves to enhance their positions and achieve the interests of their peoples.

In the same context, TASS cited Sablin as saying that Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad is planning to instruct Syria's Foreign Ministry to begin the official procedure to recognize the sovereignty of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics (DPR and LPR).
