Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani says negotiations with Israel over a security agreement remain frozen, with no date yet set for their resumption.
“We do not trust Israel currently,” al-Shaibani told Reuters, adding that contact between the two sides was cut after Israel bombed Syria’s Abu al-Duhur airbase last week.
He said Damascus expects negotiations to resume soon and that Washington is “trying continuously to put pressure on Israel to return to the dialogue table”.
Al-Shaibani accused Israel of relying unsuccessfully on military force.
“Israel has tried to maintain its security through brute force, and it hasn’t succeeded. Syria is extending its hand for understandings, for peace, for diplomacy.”
