Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa met Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam in Doha to discuss ways to strengthen cooperation and develop bilateral relations between the two countries, the Lebanese National News Agency reported Saturday.
The meeting took place at the start of both leaders' participation in the 23rd edition of the Doha Forum, which kicked off earlier in the day.
Sharaa attended the opening of the forum, being held under the theme "Justice in Action: Beyond Promises to Progress," the Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) reported without providing further details.
The two-day event brings together global leaders, including Sharaa, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares, President and CEO of the World Economic Forum Borge Brende, former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and former Microsoft CEO Bill Gates.
