Moscow expects the international community to support the formation of the Syrian Constitutional Committee, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said during his interview to German Rheinische Post.

 

 

 

"Together with Iran and Turkey, and the team of the UN Secretary-General Special Envoy for Syria, we are working on the formation of the Constitutional Committee. We believe that the international community will support our efforts", Lavrov added.

 

 

 

According to him, it is the restoration of Syrian state sovereignty over the entire territory of the country and a political settlement of the conflict, taking into account the interests of all Syrian people, that would guarantee the peaceful development of the Arab Republic in the long term.
