Well, Syria has always been Russia's allay... that is Russia's backyard! however, he has conceded to america in wanting and election is Syria which he was opposed to initially, just saying!

And Assad would not meet Obama obviously because he would get arrested but Putin is his friend! because their economic interest align.

I said would not agree to meet obama, because you said Putin has met with Assad... that is because Russia is friend with him, America is an enemy of assad, therefore a meeting with obama will result in the americans arresting him...
