Invited by Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad, this 48-hour official visit to Syria is the first since the 2005 military withdrawal under a bilateral accord and a Security Council Resolution.

The bilateral agenda includes establishing diplomatic ties which the respective presidents agreed at the Paris Summit for the Mediterranean on July, 13, 2008.

The Syrian news agency SANA says the talks between Suleiman and Al-Assad will include matters of common interest plus the latest regional and international developments.

President Al-Assad has voiced support to the Lebanese national agreement and every step towards bracing unity and stability, adds the source.

Other polemic issues on the agenda are setting the border limits, checking on old agreements, and the situation of Lebanese detainees in Syria.
