Citizens of the Arab Republic themselves should determine the future of their President, said Staffan de Mistura.
In an interview on French television, he criticized the view that the West should tell the Syrians what to think and say. The diplomat recalled that it is now necessary to discuss a new Constitution of Syria and the holding of elections supervised by the international community and the UN.
De Mistura noted that the ceasefire regime in the country is generally respected, and praised the U.S. and Russia, which, according to him, be careful not to allow occasional violations of the truce did not become mass.
