DAMASCUS, (SANA) - President Bashar al-Assad affirmed Syria's full
commitment to cooperate with any sincere efforts to resolve the crisis in
Syria as long as they were neutral and independent.
President al-Assad's stress came during his meeting on Saturday with the UN
Envoy to Syria, Lakhdar Brahimi, and the accompanying delegation.
The President said the real problem in Syria is the confusion of the
political axis with what is happening on the ground, considering that work
on the political axis is continuing, particularly regarding the serious call
for a Syrian dialogue that is based on the wishes of all Syrians.
"The success of the political work is linked with exerting pressure on the
countries which are funding and training the terrorists and allowing
smuggling of weapons into Syria to stop such acts," President al-Assad added.
For his part, Brahimi stressed that the basis of his work is the interest
and aspirations of the Syrian people, saying he will work with complete
independence and based on his main reference of Kofi Annan's plan and Geneva
statement.
He noted that any other points to be added or amended will be through
agreement with all sides.
The UN envoy underlined the need for concerted efforts by all sides to find
a solution to the crisis in light of Syria's importance and its strategic
position, demographic diversity and the influence of the Syrian crisis on
the whole region, saying "Eventually, there can't be a solution except
through the Syrian people themselves."
The meeting was attended by Deputy Prime Minister, Foreign and Expatriates
Minister Walid al-Moallem, Presidential Media and Political Advisor
Bouthaina Shaaban, Deputy Foreign and Expatriates Minister Fayssal Mikdad,
Assistant Foreign and Expatriates Minister Ahmad Arnous and Director of the
Ministry's Media Department Jihad Makdissi.
