Ukraine will assist in stabilizing the situation in Syria following the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime. Ukrainian grain will be supplied to the Syrian people, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced.

Ukraine will renew diplomatic ties with Syria as part of an international effort to help stabilize the country following the collapse last month of the Russian-backed regime of former Syrian President Bashar Assad.

New Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa held talks on Monday with Ukraine's foreign minister, the official news agency SANA reported, weeks after Russian-allied president Bashar al-Assad was ousted from power.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Thursday he was preparing to re-establish diplomatic ties with Syria, less than a month after the overthrow of the Russia-backed government in Damascus.
