The Syrian president’s visit also produced agreements covering industry, agriculture and the environment, alongside cooperation commitments with the Saudi Fund for Development.

The consulted accounts do not detail the defence agreement’s terms. This bilateral signing does not establish that Syria has joined the Makkah defence pact, which remains a separate matter.
