MOSCOW, March 16 – RIA Novosti. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad considered it a good idea to expand the Russian military presence in the country. RIA Novosti was the first outlet to speak with Assad immediately after his Kremlin talks. According to the Syrian President, on the eve of the Russian and Syrian sides at the level of defense ministers discussed issues of military cooperation, but specifically the army. “Usually we don’t announce the kind of cooperation between us and Russia. Because it’s a military issue, which always has some kind of secrecy. It’s natural. As for the military bases, it’s due of a common vision, which has both a political and a military aspect. From a military point of view, we have not discussed this issue,” the Syrian president said.

Assad supported the idea of expanding Russia’s military presence in Syria
MOSCOW, March 16 – RIA Novosti. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad considered it a good idea to expand the Russian military presence in the country. RIA Novosti was the first outlet to speak to Assad immediately after his Kremlin talks.
“
“We believe that if Russia wishes to expand the bases or increase their number, it is a question of a technical or logistical nature. If there is such a desire, we believe that the expansion of the Russian presence in Syria is good, it will serve this idea” – he said in an interview with RIA Novosti.
According to the Syrian President, the day before, the Russian and Syrian sides at the level of defense ministers discussed issues of military cooperation, but the specific military aspect of the bases was not mentioned.
“Usually we don’t announce what kind of cooperation will be between us and Russia. Because it’s a military issue that always has some kind of secrecy. It’s natural. And like military bases, it’s due to a common vision this political and military aspect. From a military point of view, we did not discuss this issue,” the Syrian president said.
