According to Itar Tass, the Kazakh Foreign Ministry said in a statement that following the Friday meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump announced an agreement on a “ceasefire” within the de-escalation zone at Syria’s southwest, which began on Sunday at noon Damascus time (09:00 GMT).

 “Ceasefire coming into effect since July 9, 2017, in provinces of Quneitra, Daraa and As-Sweida is yet another practical step on the path to comprehensive cessation of fighting across all of Syria’s territory,” the ministry said in a statement.

The Kazakh Foreign Ministry also called on all parties interested in peaceful settlement in Syria to comply meticulously with the ceasefire regime.

“We expect further development of constructive cooperation between Russia, the United States and all the other interested parties in the name of restoring peace and stability in Syria,” the ministry noted.
