MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The humanitarian cargo includes food, medication and other necessities.
"The Russian parliamentary delegation brought some trhee tons of humanitarian cargo for the children of killed Syrian soldiers and officers," Dmitry Sablin said.
Sablin also expressed hope that some Syrian children could visit Russia in 2015.
The Russia delegation head said Syrian people were outraged by the fact that world leaders had stayed silent on the violence taking place in the country. He said European leaders had expressed their solidarity with French people after the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris but had not done the same for Syrians.
He also said that the Russian delegation aimed to assess the situation in Syria, as Moscow was concerned about the possibility of Islamic State seizing Syria, from where it wanted to spread a "global caliphate."
Russia and Syria agreed to create a White Book, which would contain the crimes that Syrian people were suffering so that Europeans could understand what was really happening in the country, he said.
