Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi congratulated Syria on its April 17 Evacuation Day, a day that commemorates the expulsion of the very last French soldier from Syrian land. Raisi, furthermore, expressed confidence in boosting cooperation between Iran and Syria, in addition to contributing to regional peace and calm. 

On Sunday, Raisi congratulated Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad on Syria's Evacuation Day, asserting confidence in developing and improving bilateral relations in all fields, in addition to employing great capacities and capabilities to establish peace and development.
