Representatives from High Negotiations Committee of the Syrian opposition commented on their meeting with UN Special Envoy to Syria Staffan de Mistura during a press briefing in Geneva, Tuesday.
Discussing the meeting, senior negotiator of the High Negotiations Committee George Sabra said: "We delivered our view over the political transition process. In reference to what UN Security Council resolution No 2245 says and we handed a document to Mr. de Mistura with a set of general principles and goals of negotiations, which can realise the political transition."
"We reaffirmed our view over the necessity to form a structure of transitional authority with full powers, so that to implement the basic ground for the transition process and that's Geneva 1 communique of 2012. That's the door which will lead us to the real political transition process," he added.
HNC member Bassma Kodmani called on the Syrian government to provide a clear set of proposals regarding the negotiations. : "We welcome all the impressions that Mr. de Mistura has from his meetings with the regime and I believe he has a strategy to bring the points that are common, to both sides, to focus on those and build some common ground. For that to happen, we need the regime to make those propositions in a clear stated way," she said, before adding: "We would like to see what the regime has to offer, because this is the whole point for us. And as I said, we are prepared and have already started saying that we will provide details."
