The two sides discussed the future of Russia\u2019s presence in Syria following the fall of Bashar al-Assad.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"398\" data-end=\"719\">The meeting, which lasted over three hours, focused on three key issues proposed by the new Syrian leadership: writing off Syria\u2019s accumulated debt to Russia from Assad\u2019s era, recovering Syrian funds frozen in Moscow, and the handover of Assad to the new government\u2014an idea that was firmly rejected by the Russian side.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"721\" data-end=\"1148\">According to informed sources, Moscow remains committed to maintaining its military presence at the Hmeimim Airbase and the Tartus naval port on the Mediterranean, viewing them as crucial pillars of Russian influence in the Middle East and Africa. Russian officials also warned that any withdrawal from these bases would make Syria more vulnerable to Turkish expansion in the north, something Moscow is determined to prevent.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1150\" data-end=\"1538\">On the other hand, Al-Sharaa believes that Syria\u2019s new administration needs a strong partner to help stabilize the country internally and rebuild its international relations. With some Western sanctions on Damascus easing, cooperation with Moscow remains the most practical option, especially given Russia\u2019s continued support in providing Syria with fuel, wheat, and military equipment.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1540\" data-end=\"1820\">This meeting comes at a time of growing regional complexities: Israel continues its airstrikes in the south, Turkey maintains its military presence in the north, and the U.S. remains stationed in northeast Syria, making the conflict a multi-front struggle with competing powers.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1822\" data-end=\"1980\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">The key questions now: Can Syria\u2019s new leadership convince Russia to abandon Assad?
