President al-Assad congratulated the delegation on liberating the greatest part of the Donbass region, stressing that Russia and Syria are fighting one battle against one enemy, and that the United States is who runs the terrorists and neo-Nazis.

President al-Assad said that the main and biggest battle is against the hegemonic policies pursued by the West, which believes that it is the center and wants to run the world according to its interests. Therefore, countries that defend their sovereignty must build strong relationships among themselves in a way that enhances their positions and achieves the interests of their peoples.
