The Jordanian foreign minister says Jordan is ready to help rebuild Syria as he holds talks with Ahmed al-Sharaa.
Jordan’s foreign minister has held talks with Syria’s de facto ruler Ahmed al-Sharaa in Damascus as regional leaders move to engage with the new administration following the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad two weeks ago.
“We stand by our Syrian brothers as they start the rebuilding process,” Ayman Safadi told Al Jazeera on Monday.
“We want a stable, secure, safe Syria that guarantees the rights of its people through a transitional process consistent with the aspirations of Syrian people,” Safadi added.
