President Bashar Al-Assad on Monday received a telephone call from the President of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro who affirmed his country’s solidarity with Syria over the 7.8 magnitude earthquake that hit the country. 

President Maduro assured the Syrian President that Venezuela will continue to aid Syria, as he expressed Venezuela’s readiness to offer aid to the Syrian Arab Republic to overcome the impacts of the quake.

Syrian-Venezuelan relations have bloomed over the past couple of decades, ever since the rule of late President Chavez, both countries have shown solidarity whether in the face of US sanctions or other misfortunes.

Not all countries sent aid to Syria due to the US sanctions, others, however, sent immediate aid planes to Syria. Despite the US placing a temporary sanctions waiver, the only Western country to offer assistance to Syria was Italy.
