  • Germany's top diplomat Annalena Baerbock and her French counterpart met members of Syria's rebel-formed transition government. The pair are the first EU diplomats to visit Syria since Bashar Assad's ouster.

The article from MSN discusses a significant diplomatic engagement where the German and French Foreign Ministers met with Syria's new leadership, signaling a potential shift in Western policy towards Syria. This meeting comes after years of isolation for the Syrian government due to the ongoing civil war and human rights abuses. The discussions focused on the political process, humanitarian aid, and the fight against terrorism, with both European nations expressing cautious optimism about engaging with the new Syrian leadership to address the ongoing crisis, facilitate refugee returns, and explore avenues for peace and stability in the region. However, the article also notes that this engagement does not imply immediate recognition or normalization of relations but rather an attempt to influence positive changes within Syria.
