Al Sarah is expected to have talks on the presence of the Russian naval base in Tartu and the Hhhhimim Air Base, a Syrian official said. It is also going to officially ask Russia to hand over to Damascus former Syrian President Bashar al -Assad, a close ally of Moscow, to stand trial for crimes against the Syrian people, the same source added.
