Syria's new transitional prime minister called Wednesday for Syrians who have sought refuge abroad to return to their homeland following the ousting of longtime president Bashar al-Assad.

"Mine is an appeal to all Syrians abroad: Syria is now a free country that has earned its pride and dignity. Come back," Mohammad al-Bashir said in an interview with Italy's Corriere della Sera daily, adding that "the rights of all people and all sects in Syria" would be guaranteed.
