PM Mikati to visit Syria soon

W460

Caretaker prime minister Najib Mikati is to visit Damascus "soon", the information minister said on Tuesday -- the first such visit since Islamist-led rebels seized power in Syria last month.

"There will be a visit to Syria soon, headed by Prime Minister Mikati," Ziad Makari told reporters after a cabinet meeting. Last week, Mikati’s office said he had a phone call with Syria’s de facto leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, who invited him to Damascus.
