Reports: Syrian minister in Beirut Tuesday prior to Syrian prisoners' handover
Syria’s justice minister will visit Beirut on Tuesday to follow up on the file of the Syrian prisoners held in Lebanon, media reports said.
The visit comes after Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shibani visited Lebanon on Friday, in the first trip to Beirut by a senior Syrian official since the ouster of Bashar al-Assad.
The reports said there is an inclination to sign a judicial cooperation treaty between Lebanon and Syria.
“Justice Minister Adel Nassar will present a draft to his Syrian counterpart to agree on it ahead of taking a measure of handing over the Syrian prisoners,” the reports added.
