SYRIA-DEFENCE MINISTER
This combo shows Syria-s Army Chief of Staff, General Hassan Turkmani (L), in a photo taken in the Syrian Mediterranean porty city of Lattakia 22 October 2003 and Syrian Defence Minister Mustapha Tlass posing for a picture after a meeting with his Greek counterpart Akis Tsohatzopoulos in Damascus 03 March 2001. Tlass retired 12 May 2004 as defence minister at the age of 72 after 32 years in the post, a source close to the Syrian government said. The veteran Syrian general, who took office two years after the 1970 coup which brought Hafez al-Assad to power, in which he played a key role, will continue to serve on the ruling Baath party-s command council, the source said. Turkamni has been tipped to succeed Tlass as defence minister. AFP PHOTO/DSK
