DAMASCUS, Feb. 13-- The Syrian government said Tuesday it rejects any formation of a constitutional committee by the UN out of the context of the Syrian talks in Sochi held last month, according to state news agency SANA. In a press briefing Tuesday, Ayman Soussan, an assistant of Syria's Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem, made it clear that his government is committed to the outcome of last month's Sochi talks, which agreed on the formation of a constitutional committee from the participants in the Sochi talks in particular. He noted that Syria is not bound to the efforts of the UN envoy to Syria, Staffan de Mistura, to have a role in forming the committee outside of the Sochi agreement. |
