Damascus, (SANA) – Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the US RAND Corporation Zbignew Brezinsky described on Wednesday his talks with President Bashar al-Assad and Vice President Farouk al-Shara as very productive and positive.

In a press statement, Brezinsky said that talks dealt with recent regional developments, affirming that both sides have a common desire to achieve stability in the region, which would benefit both its people and the United States.

For his part, RAND CEO James Thomson said that the Corporation provides research for developing services in health, education, transport and infrastructure, and that this research has been focusing recently on the Palestine people and their future when a Palestinian state is established.
