Johan Forssell and Benjamin Dousa are the first Swedish ministers to visit Syria since the fall of the Assad regime in December last year.
In a joint comment to TT, Forssell and Dousa say that the government wants to "use the opportunity that the new government can bring to the country's peaceful and democratic development."
"A Swedish interest is also to increase returns to Syria, especially when it comes to people convicted of crimes. It is therefore central for the government to be on the ground to better understand the country's challenges and opportunities."
Expressen was the first to report on the ministers' visit. According to the newspaper, it was preceded by personnel from the Security Service conducting a security assessment inside Syria last week.
Syria's interim president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, was received at the White House by US President Donald Trump earlier in November.
Ahmed al-Sharaa was the leader of the Islamist rebel group HTS which led the overthrow of former President Bashar al-Assad in December last year.
The movement, which was linked to al-Qaeda, has officially disbanded. The United States lifted its terrorist designation of the group in July of this year.
