MOSCOW. – Russia considers calls for Bashar al-Asad’s voluntary
surrender unacceptable, Russian deputy FM Gennady Gatilov told
Interfax commenting on the draft resolution to be discussed in the
UN Security Council.
According to him, any decision on further political regulations in
Syria should be made through political processes without imposing
pre-conditions. Demands calling for Asad’s voluntary surrender is
a pre-condition, he said adding that Russia will not support the
draft resolution.
Armenian News-NEWS.am has earlier informed that the UN Security
Council will hold a closed session on Syria on January 28 to discuss
the draft resolution prepared by the League of Arab States.
