Lavrov: Solving all problems in Syria should be done by the Syrians themselves without any foreign interference

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stressed that the Russian air force which exists in Syria upon a request by the legitimate Syrian Government, have dealt a serious blow to the foreign-backed terrorists, reiterating that the solution to all the problems in Syria must be reached by the Syrian themselves without any foreign interference.


In an interview on Wednesday with the Italian Corriere della Sera newspaper on the Russian vision on the future of Syria, Lavrov said that the Syrians must agree by themselves on the shape of the structure of their state and later decide who will rule it through the democratic means.

He added that the main mission of Russia in Syria is to work for building hope to the Syrians of a better future in which they will live in a secular state that embraces all the religious and ethnic groups that live together in peace and amity.

Lavrov continued that since the beginning of the crisis in Syria, Russia has called for the settlement through political and diplomatic means based on launching a comprehensive dialogue among the Syrians, indicating that all the acts of Russia have been in accordance with the standards of the international law.

He said “we reiterate our calls on our western and regional partners to abandon attempts of geopolitical engineering in this region, respect sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Syrian Arab Republic and work together to help achieve the main goal of life becoming peaceful again in this country.”

Lavrov added that first of all, peace and security should be guaranteed and the terrorist hotbeds in Syria must be eliminated, affirming the necessity of establishing a broad anti-terrorism front based on the legal international standards.

He indicated that Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed an initiative in that regard in September 2015.

He added that Russia is helping in creating a suitable environment for holding a dialogue between the Syrians and for supporting the cessation of hostilities in different areas and that it is relentlessly working along with the “armed opposition” through the reconciliation center in Hmeimim.
