UNITED NATIONS, March 27-- A Chinese envoy on Wednesday called on the international community to continue pushing for the political process in Syria. "Years of conflict in Syria have brought untold misery to Syria and its people. The Syrian people yearn for an early peace so that they can return, rebuild, and resume a life in tranquility," said Wu Haitao, China's deputy permanent representative to the United Nations, in a Security Council meeting. The UN should enhance its coordination with the Syrian government to facilitate the early formation of a constitutional committee that is representative and acceptable to the parties concerned, Wu said. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the legitimate concerns of the relevant parties in a balanced manner, including that of the Syrian government, with a view to set in motion of viable political process that can be sustained, he added. The Chinese envoy also asked the international community to strengthen counter-terrorism cooperation in Syria, to adopt unified standard to fight all Security Council-listed terrorist organizations so as to prevent their return. "In Idlib, there are signs pointing to the resurface of the terrorist organizations threatening security and the stability of Syria. This is the matter that must not be overlooked," said the Chinese envoy. He also called on the international community to actively support the reconstruction in Syria, and to create conditions for the return of refugees and internally displaced people (IDPs). |
