Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that President Vladimir Putin will, on Monday, make a video call with his Syrian counterpart Bashar al-Assad.

Russian presidency did not give any other details about the topics to be discussed by the two parties.

In September of this year, a high-ranking Russian delegation visited Damascus with the aim of pushing Damascus to show flexibility towards political solutions, but according to reports, it failed to convince Damascus.

During that visit, the Russian Prime Minister said in a press conference that if things go well, we will conduct another visit to Damascus to sign major agreements with its government to ease the economic crisis, but this visit has not happened yet.
