DAR AL ISLAM-IRAQ & SYRIA: TALABANI TO VISIT ASSAD IN SYRIA...

Talabani to visit Syria next month

Iraqi President Jalal Talabani will visit Syria next month for talks with President Bashar Assad on outstanding issues concerning the two neighboring countries.

Earlier this month, Syria restored diplomatic ties that had been severed for 24 years with Iraq following a visit by Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Moallem to Baghdad.

Assad met with Talabani's envoy in Damascus, Fakhri Zanganeh, and the two agreed that the Iraqi president would visit Syria in mid-January.

Syrian Vice President Farouk al-Sharaa also met with Zanganeh on Wednesday and the two discussed the situation in Iraq, according to the official Syrian news agency.
