Iran's Zarif in Syria for talks ahead of Idlib offensive

Mohammad Javad Zarif's trip to war-ravaged Syria also comes just days before a top-level tripartite meeting in Tehran to discuss the Syrian conflict, now in its eighth year. On Monday afternoon, he met Assad to discuss "issues on the agenda for the tripartite meeting," according to the Syrian presidency's account on the Telegram messaging app. Zarif also met with Syria's prime minister and its chief diplomat Walid Muallem on Monday.
