US will not release Syria deal text: Toner added that publicizing the text may also put "opposition groups" at risk

The U.S. will not share the full text of a recent deal with Russia on a truce in Syria, the State Department said Thursday.

“It was worked out as a bilateral U.S./Russia arrangement,” according to spokesman Mark Toner. “It does deal with sensitive issues that we believe, if made public, could potentially be misused to misinterpreted or used by -- I know Secretary [John] Kerry talked about the spoilers or would-be spoilers of this.”

Toner added that publicizing the text may also put "opposition groups" at risk, implying that possibly their names and locations are specified in the text.

What is known about the deal is that moderate Syrian opposition groups and Syrian regime will have a seven-day cassation of hostilities and parties will allow humanitarian aid access to besieged areas.
