Foreign Minister Fawzi Salloukh said Damascus has presented to Beirut a list of 100 Lebanese citizens jailed in Syria as criminals.
Salloukh said "there are more than 100 Lebanese citizens serving verdicts in criminal cases in Syrian jails."
"This requires talks between the justice ministries of both countries to find out if it is possible for these prisoners to serve the remaining periods of their sentences in Lebanon," Salloukh added.
"The Syrians also gave us lists of Syrian citizens missing in Lebanon," Salloukh explained without further elaboration.
