Saudi Crown Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud yesterday discussed developments in war-torn Syria with Russia’s special envoy, Saudi state TV reported.

The Russian official, Alexander Lavrentiev, is visiting Riyadh to discuss bilateral ties as well, the channel said.

Lavrentiev’s visit comes as Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi started a two-day trip to Moscow on Wednesday that included discussions about Syria.

The United Arab Emirates has called for Syria to return to the Arab League and in November sent its foreign minister to Damascus where he met Assad.
