Video - Will Russia Transfer Assad to Syria After Death Sentence
A criminal court in Damascus issued a verdict of death in absentia against former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and his brother Maher al-Assad due to their involvement in war crimes and crimes against humanity, including deliberate killing, torture, and arbitrary detention. This ruling represents an important legal step in the pursuit of accountability for former regime figures and is the culmination of judicial investigations that adhered to proper legal procedures. Despite its issuance, the enforcement of the sentence depends on political conditions and international relations, as its implementation remains tied to Russia's cooperation. Russia holds a extradition treaty with Syria, but the likelihood of extradition remains uncertain. Damascus still has options to seek their trial through international channels if they are not handed over.
