Syria’s warring sides on Sunday exchanged accusations with the opposition saying President Bashar al-Assad’s regime will work to not make peace talks in Geneva a success.
The Syrian opposition also said it wants a start of a political process, which could end with elections and a pluralistic government, an opposition spokesman told reporters in Geneva.
Spokesman of the High Negotiations Committee (HNC) said the opposition “came here” to prove that it is keen to make the start of a political process a success while Assad’s regime will do the opposite.
He said the Syrian opposition is looking forward for a transitional government, temporary constitution, and process for elections to represent all Syrians.
After arriving in Geneva from Riyadh, Muslat told reporters that “we are keen to make this negotiation a success.”
Muslat said the HNC insisted on implementation of a U.N. resolution demanding all sides allow aid access, release detainees, end sieges and stop targeting civilian areas.
That was not a precondition for talks, he said, but it was the duty of the Security Council members who agreed the resolution last month, including Syria’s chief ally Russia, which is supporting Assad’s forces with a bombing campaign.
On the same day, a Syrian top official said Damascus wants to end the violence ravaging Syria for nearly five years, but lamented that the main opposition was “not serious” about U.N.-brokered peace talks.
The Syrian government “wants to put an end to the bloodshed,” Syria’s ambassador to the U.N. Bashar al-Jaafari told reporters in Geneva, describing HNC, which has said for now it will not negotiate, as “not serious.”............http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2016/01/31/Opposition-arrival-sets-stage-for-Syria-talks.html
