Moscow: Assad's visit for humanitarian reasons
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that the reception of former Syrian President Bashar Assad in Russia was purely for humanitarian reasons, without any political motives. This was due to his life and his family's safety amidst the dramatic circumstances of the change in power in Syria. This statement came in response to a question about whether Russia had handed over Bashar Assad after a Damascus court issued a death sentence against him; the court in Damascus had sentenced Assad in absentia for murder, torture, and crimes against humanity. They added that Russia does not interfere in Syrian affairs and that Assad does not play a political role there, emphasizing that the decision to receive him was humanitarian and aimed at protecting his life.
