UAE President Sheikh Mohamed has sent his congratulations to Syria's President Ahmad Al Shara on the formation of a new government in the country.
Similar messages were also sent by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, and Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Presidential Court.
Syria's new cabinet was formed on Saturday evening, with the aim of steering the country through a five-year transitional period. It will also aim to rebuild the country after the damage caused by the civil war, amid continuing threats from Israel, critical internal challenges and limited resources.
