Jumblat Not Worried About Syrian Regime’s Fate

Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat has stressed after returning from Damascus that he wasn’t worried about the fate of the Syrian regime.

In remarks to As Safir daily published Thursday, Jumblat said that he was relieved after his visit to the neighboring country. He added that the situation in Syria was improving.

“I felt that the Syrian leadership is walking in parallel in the path of reform and stability,” the Druze leader told the newspaper. “I think this equation is the most suitable.”

He unveiled that Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has the same point of view.

A statement released by the PSP press office said Wednesday that Jumblat held talks in Damascus with Maj. Gen. Mohammad Nassif, the assistant of the Syrian vice president, on the latest political developments.

It said that the meeting was “marked by frankness and understanding and it was an occasion to exchange ideas over the latest political developments.”
