Storyline

In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in Brussels, the Syria's chief negotiator said that his government “calls once again for a consolidation of all efforts to combat, all international efforts to combat terrorism, and to put a stop to the sponsors of terrorism.”

Speaking to reporters in Geneva Wednesday (23 Mar) Bashar al Jaafari said that “these terrorist explosions in Brussels and others that took place in Paris and other places in the world reaffirm once again that terrorism knows no boundaries."

Ambassador Jaafari referred to the fact that “some of the terrorists were fighting and killing Syrians in Syria before they went back to their capital in Brussels and the same applies to the attacks in Paris."

Regarding the outcome of today’s meeting with UN Special Envoy Staffan de Mistura, he said that "we received a paper" and that it will be "carefully studied, after we go back to our capital Damascus and we shall respond to it at the beginning of the next round.”

De Mistura also met today with the members of the main opposition group in Syria, known as HNC.
