Lavrov noted that Western countries are not concerned with constructing infrastructure for the return of the displaced to their homeland but collect money only to keep them in the countries to which they left in the first years of the crisis.

He called upon the Western countries to lift the unilateral coercive measures imposed on Syria and respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its lands.

Meanwhile, Russian President special Representative for the Middle East and Africa and Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov discussed with the Syrian Ambassador in Moscow, Dr. Riad Haddad the latest development in Syria.
